Hats, hats, and more hats!

[snarkitty.livejournal.com]

Wanted to share some recent work. . .



May I present...

All of the hats below are buckram frames with wire structure, a layer of fleece, then silk. Everything is hand stitches (GAAHH Trim on the Tricorn was SO TEDIOUS!) but it's all good. I do my best to keep all my stitches hidden. The skulls featured here are resin cast skulls (Smaller is quail and the bigger a burrowing owl).

Also, I've been working on my blog and trying to provide tutorials and how-tos, so if anyone is interested I've got the following:

Shoe Insole replacement
Introduction to Millinery
Flat Patterning for a pillbox hat and tricorn

Thanks everyone for reading :D
