Designing, Drafting, and Making an 1890s Hat! + The pattern
This patreon exclusive video is all about the process of designing and constructing the hat to go with this years pumpkin project!
It came together over a period of two days, and I'm really happy with how it turned out. It isn't perfect, but I think the shape is neat and the trimmings compliment it well!
For anyone interested, I've attached a pdf version of the pattern! The pattern is for the interfacing base layer - the outer layer of fabric, and lining were all made using the same patterns just with the addition of seam allowance.
It should print to the correct scale on standard 8 1/2" x 11" paper, but just in case, the first page has a key that should measure 1" when printed.

love the had video, you do such wonderful work!
One of your hat videos introduced me to costuming online many years ago and every time you publish a new one I get a warm fuzzy feeling.
Love it! You make it look like such a thing is doable... but hmm.. I know the devil is in the details and it take a professional hand to pull it off. SO I will just live vicariously.. *L* You're awesome!
LOVE THE HAT. Love. And it looks good on you.
Love it! Seeing you making hats is making me want to try for myself! you've explained your process very well over the years and it's always super interesting to see your process when you're embellishing. The final result is stunning!
Fantastic!! I love all the combinations of textures you incorporated!
I can't wait for the photos, the hat alone is amazing !
The hat is gorgeous! I want one! Can't wait to see the full reveal. Love the blouse too. Am partial to the 1890s though I do love the big hats of the Edwardian era. Mix and match I say :) Thank you for sharing with us.
I am so so so excited for this project! The hat looks great. Can't wait to see it all together.
