Large Brim Panama Hat Repair






I recently had a client distraught over the state of her large brim panama straw hat. I managed to repair it for her, as the breakage was near the edge of the brim I ended up having to take the smallest amount off the the very edge and by  binding the edge gave her hat a new lease of life, ONE VERY happy customer.

How To Make a Small Fascinator Shape





Cover the shape with your fabric, making the back seam nice and straight, add your trim, here I have draped fabric over the shape into a gather and topped with a top-stitched bow.




Wire the edge, making sure to overlap the wire.



 Remove the shape once it is dry and cut the excess off, 
make sure the cut is straight.




 Start with pulling some Paris Net (or Buckram) over a small shape, I add a top layer of fine cotton to help smooth out the texture of the Paris Net which is important if you are planning on covering with fine fabric.
