More Hats!

I LOVE this Hat!


Yesterday, sort of on a whim, I decided I would whip up a hat for Bailey for her birthday. (which was yesterday) This hat is from Whimsical's new book, "Tangled Up in Thread. I knew the hat was cute, I'd seen them at Quilt Market. What I didn't know was how easy, and how addictive, they were going to be! Here's the run down on the hat:

2 hours = 1 hat
<$10 of materials = 1 hat
2 fat quarters, 1/8yd. trim and 1/4yd. interfacing = 1 hat
1 hat made = orders for at least 3 more!

Even if you made nothing else from the book, the hat is more than worth purchasing the book for! I am making 2 more today for my other two girls, and maybe tomorrow I'll finally get one for myself. It is great fun to embellish them with different flowers and buttons, and this Fall I'll probably make us all a winter hat from the Woolie Flannels!
