 Bonnet (1953)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Whatever the origin, the fl bonnet, as distinct from the common woman's hat in various colors, became by the mid-19th century a prescribed part of the woman's costume in the United States sections of the Mennonite Church (MC), the Amish Mennonite Church, and all groups related to them.
The cloth of the rear part of these bonnets usually extends down to the shoulders, and the projection over the face is so long as to make it impossible to see the face except from directly in front.
This bonnet was, however, not a uniquely Mennonite style, and was much worn by older women of all denominations in England and Canada in the late 19th century, particularly by conservative Methodist and Baptist women.

Cut out two bonnet pieces, one neckband piece, and two ties that are the same width as the neckband (3 1/2 inches) and 27 inches long.
Notice that the bonnet pattern is only half the piece—you need to place it on the fold of the fabric so you get a piece that looks sort of like a funny-looking mushroom.
Sew one edge of the neckband piece to the bottom of the bonnet, right sides together, then turn the neckband around, fold the raw edge under, and sew the other edge to the inside of the bonnet—either whip stitch it by hand or topstitch it down.
