I agree. So I found one on the bay in my size, 7 1/2 (shocker!), but it was missing its ribbon. The color is so fantastic and creamy, the felt so lovely and inviting, I thought, "I wonder if Art Fawcett would do me the favor of installing just the right ribbon?" I asked him with a bit of trepidation, and he responded right away, agreeing to take on the job!
The hat came back today after an incredibly short time away (a week? Could it have been that fast?) and I'd like to share the results. He lifted the hat from the realm of lofty to that of heavenly. I am blown away.
I gave him the option of leaving the trolley on (it remained, where the ribbon was gone) or losing it, and he chose to let it be. That was the perfect choice! And I left the ribbon color selection entirely up to his experienced eye. That was wise on my part! Check out his superb work:
