At the risk of hurting the feelings of the other hats, I'll say this is my favorite of the four. It's proven the most wearable.
That's my hatmaking odyssey! I might go back to Izzie's studio in the future. If so, you'll see the evidence of it!
Right now I'm sewing a wool hat from a vintage 1920s pattern (yes, a cloche). It doesn't require hat blocks or expensive equipment, so I'm managing to put it together at home. I'll be sure to put up the pictures when I'm done!
