New hat!

Feb 27, 2006 13:26

So yesterday I decided to see if I could make a hat to match my new coat, which will be trimmed in faux mink when I get my butt in gear and finish it. The hat is a little big, but pretty cute for a first attempt. It's lined and trimmed in the same faux fur, and is really soft inside. :) I'll post a pic when I finish sewing the lining in.

Oh, gosh, no! It's existing trim - I just added the metal bits and pearls. It's *really* nice trim, though. :)

I will probably be wearing this on Saturday, assuming I get it finished in time. (Which makes me easy to identify at a distance. *grin*) I figured out it takes me about 6 minutes to do 4 pearls, and I have 25 little squares left to decorate.

If I were *really* amazingly efficient, I'd have some new headgear to show off my new temple rings, but I don't think that will happen quite yet.

Umm, stuffed in a drawer in my sewing room. Seriously, I have no idea - it may have been Calontir Trim (online), or it may have been somewhere else completely. I got it years ago, and promptly forgot about it. The folks at Realm of Regalia say they can get their hands on it, but it's pricey (somewhere along the lines of $20 a yard!), and hard to find. I must have stumbled across it somewhere *before* it was so hard to find, as I know I wouldn't have paid more than, say, $7 a yard. It comes in blue, too.

You don't suck, chica. :)

That is just so awesome. I can't wait to see it this weekend!

Have you not seen this? I wore it at 12th Night, without the extra shiny bits. I will *not* wear the wool underdress this time, though, no matter how light and comfy it seems to be. Wool + silk = REALLY HOT (and not in a good way).

I've seen it, but not without pearls. And that doesn't keep me from admiring it all over again because it's just so darn cool. :)

If you do wear this at A&S, you won't be hard to find. We will just need sunglasses!
