I am in the process of making this hat, I call it my Frankencow hat LOL, from just some leather scraps of a variety of leathers. I just punched holes and hand stitched using 1mm round leather lace. I know if looks rough, but was not going for anything fancy, I just wanted something different to wear. Still not finished, but just thought I'd share.

three to four oz leather works great for tophats not to hard to work with and with it being veg tanned its stiff enough to hold up and easy to lace as well as dye what ever colour you want!

This project is getting closer. Had a good look on Mr Google, and Mrs Youtube . I may end up doing two . One to ' practice' and the other as a project.

I would have made one made by now  if it wasn't for the ' interruptions'  I've had these past few months or more . 

Love the " Frankencow" hat :)  What a great way to use up scraps  :thumbsup:

I started doing a hat  pattern last week, I wasn't happy  with how it looked ,so I screwed it up,  and,  (with an expletive )  I  threw it in the bin . I did another pattern.... " ditto" .... 

I'll get there eventually :)
