Blue Sky Hats Pattern Description
Choice of the Sun Hat or a Skull Cap Which view and size did you make?
I made the Sun Hat Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes If not, why?
- Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes If not, why?
- What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
The pattern was easy to follow Fabric used
AB Lotus Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
She recommends 3 layers of duck canvas if using quilting cotton. I thought that would make it too heavy and hot so I fused craft fuse on the exterior crown pieces and 1 layer of canvas. On the brim I sewed in pelltex 70 and I used 1 layer of duck canvas. I think that hat has nice structure and it is not too heavy and fits well. I LOVE IT! I love hats. Would you sew this pattern again?
Yes Would you recommend this pattern to others?
