I am int he process of my first ever (re) block of a Keppler fedora I bought over a year ago. I was getting talked through tutorial wise by Marc from Indygear but he has left work and no longer responding to email and its too late to phone him or anything.

How do I sew a sweatband back onto a fedora? I am a complete amateur but he assured me that there is a nice trick on a way to reattach the sweatband but as I wasnt at that stage he said he woudl tell me later.

I need the hat tomorrow (12 hours) for a photoshoot with a newspaper doing an article on my film and I wanted to reblock the aht so it looked perfect.

Please help!!

And pre-emptivly I will prob need advice on reattaching the ribbon as well!!

If anyone can please walk me through the process I would be infinitly grateful!

Ken
