I decided to work on the hat that goes with Jen's Bustle Dress. After looking at tons of pictures the hats were to give a tall look. I decided I would do a "feather" look of fabric which I saw was a popular application.
I started with a paper pattern of what I wanted to do with the fabric.
Then I cut out the fabric, added a couple layers of netting to hold the fabric upright and basted in the folds.
I attached the "feather" to the hat.
Then I did a search though the old jewelry boxes to put a spark on the hat!
I make a rosette to go around the pendant I found. I think it may be polished petrified wood in a gold setting. This was one of my Aunt Edna's pieces, probably bought on one of her many trips.
I added some netting around the brim to soften it a bit. I may fuss a bit on this some more.
