WIP - pattern concept:

steps:

cut 4 pieces of fabric, all the same size - if the fabric has a right side and wrong side, then flip pattern for 2 of the pieces as shown

sew

notes:

the fabric should have a bit of stretch to it so the measures don't have to be so precise - knit or a stretchy weave would work best

could be nice as a reversible piece

could be handsewn easily enough

maybe best to make a toile first with paper/calico

doesn't necessarily have to be lined but it would look much better with lining

sewing a ribbon/string at the ends would make for a cute under-chin bonnet tie
