Thank you for the links!
The page from Demode is also an inspiration for her wig :-) .
I love that gown too and I hope one day I will make it for myself.
It shouldn't be too hard to make such a little hat.
I made the white hat in the pictures with the blue dress.
It is an embroidery pattern that embroiders a circle. If I would make a
smaller one it will be perfect for the base.
The water soluble film that stiffens the embroidery like buckram when
dipped in water and than dried.

I love your inspiration gown!! I think a small tilted-forward hat would be
much more likely then a bonnet. You can take a look at some period
pictures here: http://www.demodecouture.com/hair/hair_early.html to get an
idea of the shape. I've just gotten Lynn McMaster's pattern for a full
sized version of the kind of hat I'd recommend, but since I haven't tried
it yet, I can't comment on the pattern itself. (http://lynnmcmasters.com/
- click on the New Patterns Link, the pattern I'm talking about is in the
third row down on the left.)
Good Luck!
