Earlier this year I went to Hancock Fabric and bought some pretty green fabric and some interfacing for a new bonnet. It has been forever since I've had a cloth bonnet and the fabric was practically telling me to buy it. ;) Well school and work soon got in the way and I misplaced everything I would need to make the bonnet. Well yesterday I found the fabric, interfacing, ribbon, and most importantly of all, the pattern! Before I went to work yesterday I cut out the pieces and started stitching the bonnet pieces together. After talking with my mom I decided not to use a sewing machine for this project. It will be all by hand this time (so feel free to pray for me). I am looking forward to seeing the finished product and cannot wait to try it on! Hopefully this weekend I will find some nice, quiet sewing time to finish it. What are some of y'all's sewing projects?

This is the pretty green fabric I mentioned, with just one of our cats in the windowsill. Little Miss Poppy wanted to watch me work. :)
I borrowed my Mom's straight pins as mine where elsewhere.I love the little jars she uses to store all her sewing things.
My pattern and breakfast. I normally do not eat a lot in the morning, just a little something to get my body going.
The pattern pieces waiting to be used to cut out the fabric.
Just in case any of y'all were wondering what pattern I was using. :)
I wanted to show what all I was doing with the hand sewing, and to prove that yes this will be all by hand!
Of course I also wanted to show you what it looks like so far! Aka crazy photo op! ;)
