Eyes shut Paula? Okay then the first thing I do is put a couple of discreet stitches through the bow just to the right and left of the bow knot. Having done that and I have decided that I don't like the lopsided "flying saucer" look, I proceed to the nearest burn(stream), fill the bonnet up with stones and throw it in!



Leave for a day, submerged, and then recover it and let it dry.



Knock it about a bit, and then drown it again.





More to come in due course.
