Regency bonnet bites the dust

In the immortal words of [livejournal.com profile] laurenmonkey, my Regency bonnet is made of fail. After two tries I give up. First try looked like a Dr Seuss hat, second time a tacky golfer's cap. Makes the disappointment that I didn't get into Mela's S&S hat class (the ONE class I really, really wanted) all the more crushing because I obliviously can't do this by myself. *bangs head on desk in frustration*

So now I'm trying to decide if pouting for a while will help or if I should just jump into the fray and work on something else. Right now I hate everything I'm working on and want to throw my machine, scissors and bright ideas across the room.

Moo I say - MOO!

I'm sorry you didn't get the bonnet class! I know this doesn't help you get a bonnet made in time for CC, but I vote that we meet up sometime post-bonnet class and I will share with you everything that I learned, and copy my notes for you! I'll trade you that, for a re-training on the pearl knotting tool thing, since I was trying to remember how to do that the other day and my poor brain seems to have lost that information in the shuffle, somehow!

That sounds wonderful! And no problem with the pearl knotting, Aubry wanted a refresher too so I'm already bring stuff. We'll have to have a little private class session at some point. :>
