Here's another vintage hat tutorial today, using some scraps from your stash and a hat base from your recycling bin. This little cocktail hat is an open fabric band embellished with millinery veil and little autumn berries.
You will need:
scrap of fabric- wool, velvet, whatever you like
a cereal box
millinery veil- available from JoAnne Fabrics or on etsy
flowers or berries of your choice. I found these from the dollar tree
PATTERN: download the pattern for free from Dropbox right here
trace your pattern onto the cereal box and cut two pieces
glue the two pieces together for more stability
cut your fabric band on the bias, so it bends around the age a little easier
glue the hat base together, forming a circle and whip stitch the fabric to the hat base.
cut your veil 1 yard long. Gather the veil by folding the long edge like an accordion, with small folds. sew back and forth through the accordion folds to secure.
Use a few anchor stitches to attach the veil to the hat band.
decorate the veil with berries, flowers or fabric bows. I used hot glue and tried to anchor most of the berries to the base and the center of the veil. If you like, you can cover the center of the veil, were most of the berry or flower stems are with a little bow. I found this vintage velvet ribbon in my stash.
You can also sew little hair combs to the inside band of this hat, if it doesn't want to stay on by itself.
Lovely fall hat!
ReplyDeleteOo another topping topper! I know what I'll be doing the next rainy weekend we get... x
ReplyDeleteThank you! I was hoping to make a new hat and this is the one! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteSo adorable and looks lovely on you!
ReplyDeleteSo awesomely pretty! I'd be so tempted to wear a stunning faux fruit adorned hat like this for Thanksgiving, to tie into the theme of a bountiful harvest.
ReplyDeleteThank you for another wonderful tutorial.

This is fantastic! I have such a big head--I can wear men's large hats--and so vintage hats never fit me.
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely tutorial, thank you for sharing. I'm excited about creating something for a full spring ensemble now! Hm, that's got my brain buzzing... :) ❤

hello there,ciao...how nice!...this veiled hat is great on you...cheers!
ReplyDeleteI started to make this hat, and I'm a little confused--for the fabric, am I cutting a piece using the same pattern I used for the cardboard? Or am I cutting a strip on the bias. It just doesn't look as though your plaid was cut on the bias.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Nevermind, I figured it out and the hat turned out great. Thanks for sharing the tutorial!
