How to make a silk hat

[Bamboostyx1]

What type of sewing machine are you using?

[impossibleXlilXbratX]

i think your hat looked beautiful and so do you!

[janc458]

Beautiful!  You did an awesome job on the video!! And the hat looked great on you!

[MsAsfarinah]

can you tell me what is the item that you use?



[Publisher33]

$20.00 is not a nominal fee for a pdf tutorial and pattern. I love the hat, but the price is waaaaay too much!

[odanisca]

OMG so cute I love que bello!!!!!!!!!!!

[DreamDreamDream21]

wow, thats amazing awsome good work.....

[bearhedded]

Nice! Concise and easy to follow!

I like to slice Rigilene into individual filaments, and space beads along them. You can steam knots in between them, and make dangly, sort-of cockades with them.

What is the name of the white card like stuff she was using ...I gather thats to give the hat it's stiff shape?

[NinaQueenofSpades]

@2009ginasweetie I didn't read the instructions, but it's probably a heavy interfacing, or bulkrim.

This is a really difficult way to make a silk hat.

. Be warned - working with silk is not easy. It frays quickly and you have to make sure the tension on your machine is correct.

Still- I loved the hat,

@alvaheadwear

Thanks for your comments. Actually if you use high quality duppioni silk with little slub, it is similar to working with cotton. The tension on your machine is a regular setting around 4. Granted you have to be aware of the silk stretching, it's no different from sewing any natural fiber in a medium weight.

[Candiecane908]

Church ladies everywhere drool.

[offwithurhead]

wow that's so awesome!!!!:D

could i make something similar to a tophat somewhat like this?

[itsallaboutmeow]

would that pattern work for other fabrics such as cotton or something, as long as I have the lining right?

[osogoodgirl]

Where has this been all my life?! Omigosh! I'm going to have to watch this a couple of times to really figure out all the measurements and which piece goes were and all of that but this really expanded my limited field of knowledge. AWESOME!

[hatfiend]

hi, i'm actually planning to sell the pattern for a nominal fee if I can get it together. thanks for your input.

[osogoodgirl]

Great idea! How many different patterns do you have?

[Hatattitude]

You are amazing I would like to see more videos of your wonderful work.

[Kruizinby]

I now understane why some hats are so expensive. The time it takes to make it right.

[shewstring2000]

i don't understand, you didn't explain how the pattern is constructed, or measurements.

[comeunityarts]

I really enjoyed watching this

[merrycerrmen1]

Fabulous!!!

[kittyzabelle]

This is a wonderful video.

[TomOgden]

Bravo!

Please add more videos showing different hat styles.

[ExoticSeamstress]

Felt like alot of work! Whew! The music made me want to rush you! lol

[zahara11]

Yes, could you show another style? How about a casual cotton sun hat?

[hugothepug]

This is really cool! One of the only real hat-making videos out there! Too bad I don't have opposable thumbs or I'd be making hats like these.

[tripleventi]
