So I made a very special gift. Her own smocked pink and white "Easter" bonnet, dainty, delicate and oh so feminine.
With the simplest details such as these ribbon clasps to keep the silk ribbons that will caress her tiny, fresh, newborn chin.
"Mrs. Weston, with her baby on her knee, indulging in such reflections as these, was one of the happiest women in the world. If any thing could increase her delight, it was perceiving that the baby would soon have outgrown its first set of caps."

What a precious gift to treasure, such intricate work!
Stunning. I also love "Emma". I love your header too. Oh to meet you one day.
That bonnet is beautiful - you know I've never read Jane Austin. Sacriledge! I've always told myself I'm going to read the classics, but I never get to them.
