A special Balmoral

[Lady Grey]

Here's a very loud and goofy balmoral I made for an elderly gentleman who is intellectually disabled and blind.
The colours are what was left over from other bonnets and it's bright so it won't get lost at his home. The cockade is totally over-the-top and large along with an old pendant sewn on, as a pinned badge would be unsafe.
He thought it was great fun and kept touching and feeling all the different bits of the bonnet for sensory input. Then had a great time adjusting the angle of it on his head (I think 'Jocking' it would be a bit much for the old boy.
