    Hey all, was curious about this: I have plans to make a suede cowboy hat but I’m unsure if the hat will be as sturdy as I’d like in the crown area, would a backing of sorts be a good idea?

    just his cowboy hat pattern, from the file name its called "the bounty hunter" and i think the video he has on youtube for it was called DIY Cowboy Hat, that compliment means the world, thank you so much!

    Hey all, wanted to post this sooner but i had to compress the files first, this was my first ever leather project! made it as a way to prove to myself that i can at the very least make a hat out of leather via a pattern, im real proud of this, really satisfied by the result and especially by the profile and shadow it casts

    honestly might just keep the edge binding as a separate piece, not sure if i've got the brains yet to figure out how to make the binding a part of the hat.

    that makes sense, should've added in the post that its a cowboy hat pattern, the pattern allows for a metal wire to be inserted in the brim via bound edges made from other strips of leather, trying to figure out how to do an edge binding thats one with the brim instead of a separate piece of leather

    I might just be paranoid but I have a pattern for a hat and I’ve made one from veg tan, I want to make one from suede, I plan to tweak the pattern on the crown stitching. I just want to be sure I won’t be making a mistake by doing it in the first place can I use the same pattern for suede?
