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!
