This image is slightly creepy – the ‘head’ the bonnet she is working on looks very lifelike (or is it a cheld resting her head on the woman’s knee?). And, what is she putting in her mouth? Pins? Small bit of food? Shiver…..

It is almost like the bonnet’s head is more realistic than the milliner’s isn’t it?
I think those are pins in her mouth. It is a habit I try not to have.

Yeah, I do the pins in the mouth thing occassionally too. That is quite an elaborate bonnet she’s making!

In contract to her ‘cap’ – which looks like a square folded into a triangle and then tied on her head kind of backwards with the tip of the triangle over her brow?
