So of course a baby bonnet serves the practical purpose of keeping baby warm in colder months (especially if a fleece lining is added), plus it completely covers baby's ears. And in warmer months it can provide great protection from the sun, especially if a brim is added to keep the sun out of baby's eyes. And of course, a baby bonnet can also be purely decorative, such as a bonnet made from lace or embellished with ruffles, made to coordinate with a more formal outfit. Plus, because a baby bonnet ties or fastens under the chin, it stays in place, keeping it secure. And a baby bonnet also provides a nice way of framing and showcasing baby's sweet, adorable face.

And of course by making your own baby bonnet you can choose your fabrics, perhaps even choosing to create a coordinated outfit. And sewing a baby bonnet can also be a great way to use larger fabric scraps you may have leftover from other projects. It can also be a great way to use larger pre-cut quilting fabrics like fat quarters or layer cakes. A baby bonnet can also make a great diy baby shower gift.

And just remember that when sewing baby clothes, for safety reasons, to avoid adding any long cords or drawstrings, long belts or sashes to items. And you may also want to avoid using buttons, small bows, or other embellishments that could come off and become a choking hazard.
