Millinery Making - blocking a Harris Tweed Button Hat

This video covers how to block with buckram and fabric, plus other tips on curling feathers and more..If you have any questions do ask. More videos will follow on feather work, straw work and much much more. I believe in sharing knowledge, and hope you gain some useful insights in your millinery journey.

Enjoyed this - and thanks for the extra bit on feather mount

Glad you enjoyed it, I like to add extras :)

Great video. I now know where I went wrong when I had blocked silk dupion with buckram. I tried to sew in brim Reed and completely ruined the shape of the whole thing. Think I probably should have put extra stiffener also.

Thanks for a great video, I have been looking for it everywhere. I am your new fan. Little info, the gold metal thing you use for holding feathers is called aglet. 😉

Like the tutorial. What is the name of the liquid stiffener? Thanks

[@SHMillinery]

Hi, it is PVA

[@angelesarregui1856]

Hi, what's the name of the material you use between the fabric and the felt? Thanks for your videos, they are amazing!

[@SHMillinery]

Millinery buckram

[@angelesarregui1856]

@@SHMillinery Thank you so much!

[@rocioinigomacarro939]

Se puede usar sinamay en vez de buckram?

[@SHMillinery]

No lo he intentado, pero espero que puedas, pero usando 3 capas para que quede lo suficientemente rígido

[@4scampton786]

would you never sew the lining
in?

[@SHMillinery]

if the hat was much larger, then yes I would

[@jeannieclark8603]

No wire around edge?

[@SHMillinery]

No 🙂
