Somewhere in Time,
Unlimited presents: Easter Bonnet Workshop April 17, 2011
|
|
The historical costume group from Seattle, Somewhere in Time,
Unlimited, gathered together one afternoon in order to prepare
Easter Bonnets. Many of the ladies planned to participate the
following weekend in the Snohomish Easter Parade. A wildly decorative hat was in order! |
|
Each of the ladies were asked to bring a hat to decorate, to the
Workshop. Silk flowers to use, were provided by Somewhere in Time, Unlimited for free. It was the responsibility
of each of the ladies Here, Miss Vanetta holds up a book, |

Queen Julia (left) brought a friend along this time. We can see they have a pink theme started. |
Another participant wanted her hat to do "double duty" - Easter Parade AND Red Hatter's Club! |
Miss Vanetta strolls past with a bear she has dressed. | Here are a few of the beautiful hats Vanetta has created! |
Miss Beverly spread out a roll of buckram so she can give strength
to one of the hats she has brought to decorate. |

Here, Miss Vanetta is spotted sewing the buckram to the hat. | Take a peek - which flowers would you like to choose? |
Lookin' gooooood! The pink flowers are so artistically
placed...
Here Miss Vanetta gives us ideas of how to mount the flowers
quickly to a hat. |

Jan, a visitor to the Bellevue Library on this day, swung by to see
what we were doing. It wasn't long before she was involved and had fashioned an clever hat for herself! |
|
Miss Christa is spotted taking notes.... | This is the hat that she and her mother created! |
This is the finished hat of Miss Beverly. The red fabric really sets off all the lavender! Lady Victoria of Essex also decorated a hat. As it is a
surprise, it was not featured in these photos. |
