Members TTcustom Posted September 13, 2009 Members Report Posted September 13, 2009 It isn't completely finished yet but I had to show y'all a picture of my top hat taken from Tom Banwell's pattern. It is an explorer themed hat, well sort of. I got carried away with the height but the next one will be better and not so cartoonish. I added a picture of the top before I sewed it in.

Members TTcustom Posted September 14, 2009 Author Members Report Posted September 14, 2009 I forgot to say that I have the patterns cut for the next one already and it is more proportional than this first one but with a little flare built into it.
