Embroidered Coif

I kinda cheated for getting an embroidered coif complete by June.  My dear husband had gifted me a piece of blackwork embroidered fabric from Truly Hats for making a coif last year.  After making the mocks and trying different sizes of coifs, I decided it was time to use it.

Here's the finished product.  I stitched around the edges in black silk to mimic the look of many of the extant coifs that have an edge/border to end the embroidery.  My hope was to have it look slightly less like a piece of machine embroidered fabric.
