Good luck...I think the bonnet is a great idea.

Hat/apron sound like great ideas.
You might also consider using some of that yarn that's kind of shredded looking (or something like the old "eye-lash" fabric) and give the duck feathers.
That would give the baby something to play with!
Let us know what you end up doing.

Oh, I used a tea towel to give the duck a fuzzy look. This is my first time doing it with that type material. I won't be doing that again.
Thanks again.
