I finally got some decent pics of my hats out I the wild! Please let me know what you think. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Thank you so much! I am having such a great time learning the craft & exploring the way the materials perform & how they can be manipulated. In fun news - a local theatre just let me set up a display of some hats to sell. I couldn't be having more fun. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now...

My new hat model, Yorick, shows off my newest creation - black fur felt with vintage silver & black hatband. Still needs black grosgrain edge binding. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Thanks for the tip! I'll play around with it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Not easy to photograph with my iPhone, but this should give you a vague idea - silky lining, grosgrain sweatband, label. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Finished the Black & Burgundy Fedora. Keep in mind - it's not my size hence the silly proportions while on my head! It's also a true burgundy ribbon - my iPhone camera is skewing it way too pink. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Aw, thanks! I've taken some orders from friends and a really lovely friend of mine who runs a theatre has let me display my hats in his lobby. We'll see where it goes from here! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

And the ribbon-bound edge is all finished! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Navy Fedora with Cream & Navy Bow. As usual, this doesn't photograph great in my indoor lighting. It still needs the edge bound in navy ribbon, a lining & hatband. The bow was fun to make. It's not striped ribbon - just something I sewed together from some different vintage ribbons...

At least they are keeping very good company ;-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free
