    The badge is one I have been honoured with by The City of Saint-Laurent Scottish Pipe Band some 25 years ago.

    Robert, I *love* that bonnet. Any chance that Lady Chrystel might share how she made it? Might be I could convince my wife to make we one as well at some point.

    Beautiful!

    Thank you for your sweet comment.
    My bonnet is 15" in diameter.
    Check this link for making it.
    Chrystel pretty much used the same method.

    AA - your lady has considerable sewing skills and spoils you rotten - good for you both!
