Run gathering stitches along the curved edge of the crown piece and draw them up to fit the long edge of the brim:
Pin to brim, right sides together and stitch.
Run gathering stitches along the straight bottom edge of the crown piece. Draw them up to fit your neckline. (this is best done by putting the bonnet-so-far on and drawing the neckline edge of the crown up to fit your neck - be sure to take into account the hairstyle you will be utilizing while wearing the bonnet!) For me, this measurement is approximately 7 inches.
If desired, pipe the lower edge of the crown/brim.
The bonnet is now half-complete!
Love,
Sarah
