That's a great hat! I've thought about making myself a leather kepi but it's hard to find a good design

I guess I'm going to have to trial and error it.

Have you thought about buying a cheap cloth version and taking it apart for a pattern? here's one or maybe stop by a Stuckey's for one of their souvenir hats. Just remember to bring back pecan rolls for everyone.

Danamy,

Have you considered glueing the seam between the brim and the top on the inside of the top. I think it would improve its appearance.
