My First Hat

I took a hat making class back in college and one of the hats I made was a cloche. That's pretty much what started this whole thing. I liked making the hat and really liked the infinite possibilities a blank hood has. I think as I continue to make more, my designs will only continue to mature.

I really wish I knew how to rotate pictures once they're uploaded! Anyway, this one I embroidered (obviously). It was hard to do because I had to draw the design on the inside. Definitely not something that I would have been able to do with a darker hood.

My nephew modeling it again. I think if I did again, I'd keep the brim a little smaller.

The back ... yeah, cut the brim in about half.

I like how the embroidery turned out.
