  • This video is kind a of a beast. But hopefully I covered all the steps clearly and it justifies the length (you'll have to let me know!) Link to the pattern used are down below!
    Oof my background is a mess in that intro. It's been chaotic here, okay!!
    The pattern for this hat is available to patreon supporters HERE: / 18786249

    ✩Heavy duty thread: the one featured in this video is by Coat's & Clark's, and called Extra Strong. I've NEVER had this thread break on me, it's great and not too expensive ($2 a spool) but isn't required for this project. It just makes it easier.
    ✩Wire: I was using 18 gauge picture hanging wire - but the wires purpose doesn't matter, as long as it is thin enough to be bendable and strong enough to hold its shape. I'd personally recommend galvanized steel wire.
    ✩Interfacing : The interfacing used is by pellon, here is a direct link:

    It feels like felt but is much stiffer. You can get the type with or without fusible webbing; it doesn't matter that much.

    I think all the fabrics were from the garment district, I don't remember wear though. Sorry!
    The nail polish is Sunflowers from illiminte. But I call it pin head yellow.

    Thank you so much! I’m in the middle of making a hat from a pattern, and already I see so many techniques that would have been beneficial. I liked the idea of using any sort of wire; I used millinery wire on a very shaped brim and I worry about it being floppy and not holding its shape. I planned on making a top hat next so I’ll take your techniques to heart.

    So much truth in this video! Decoration adds so much to hats and I remember the first one I made (a French hood following along with how you made yours) I was horrified until I started adding the beads and trim on! And now it's one of my favorite things I ever made! Also I love the part about staying true to what their intentions were in the past. I like to consider the spirit of the garment when I'm making it in addition to all the actual evidence, and it eases my mind when I hit something I just can't do in the historical way.

    I love the hat! I am going to make a 3 piece edwardian inspired suit of black pinstriped suiting and the blue striped fabric I have chosen to make a blouse is close to the blue flowers in the hat. I think the hat would be perfect for.my suit. I was going to make a 3 piece skirt (pencil style bustle with a corset and victorain jacket to match) I decided I want a high waist skirt so a corset will not suit me and I have opted to not make a wide collar on my jacket.but go to the high neck ( I think) that may change again to. Thanks for the inspiration and details . I like it and it will be a style.very close to the one made here. Oh, and I do so love the sheer fabric you used to line the brim and make the blouse you wore made from it.
    Sence the suit is more a cold weather wear. I have a 1940's dress pattern to make but the size is not my body size, so much math is needed for the pintucks not on the pattern design and plus it will need a whole bust adjustment . I must.give you the props on this to as it.is 2 plaids with all the same.colors but the size of plaid is not the same. When I do these , would you like.to see them. I may or may.not.have a hat. The 1940 dress is a summer.dress to be mathed out and made asap.
    I give you my inspirering person tag even though I have wanted to do these things before you were even born. It truly is you that deseve it all. Many years battleing being.super.poor and a hard life but I have alway had passion for the arts in music clothing and home decore. I will sew again and I will reconnect with my.lost ability to do good and.you.helped. THANK YOU. I sure hope I dont embarrass me. lol.
    Oh one.more.thing Hats have a twill tape at the cap just above the brim . I haven't seen you use one. Is that.not something you feel needed? Or is it.just.that ypu dont wear them enough to strwtch the hat size? Just wondering why , answer or donot Much love and adoration keeep.up the fabulous work well done and well lived by many. I dont know how many.followers you have but I bet all of them have my.very same feelings about you and your talent alone with admiration on being SELF-TAUGHT. SPECTATOR Ang3lia (3 was an accident but i have changed text over 3 times today... it is who I truly.am so it.is an e & me occasionally but today wildfire.

    I have to try this. I found the process fascinating.

    I would recommend not using regular picture wire for hats as it doesn't bounce back like millinery wire. Millinery wire will not bend out of shape as easily.

    I work at a hat store so I LOVED watching this! It may not be historically accurate, but adding a drawstring to the inside of the crown can help prevent the hat from falling too far forward or being too large. I see this becoming more common on large, Kentucky derby style hats. Little loops on the inside to hook hair pins into can also help keep a hat in place. Hat pins might be a more authentic option, but may be difficult to get through so many layers. Depending on the fabric, it may cause damage. But on looser weaves like a sinamay base, you can slide the pin between the fibers without a problem.

    I only discovered your channel the other day and I have been binge watching ever since. I have made lots of costumes in my time, but nothing historically accurate. I wish I had access to the material and the prices that you have, but as I live in the UK 🇬🇧 I don't. I am very much enjoying watching you and you have made me want to go into my work room and get sewing. X
