American premiere hat designer Suzanne Newman has made hats for royals including Infanta Elena of Spain and Princess Marie Chantal of Greece. Several years ago, she made a hat for Martha Stewart a…

Hat making, also known as millinery, is the process of creating hats and headwear for a variety of purposes, including fashion, protection from the elements, and ceremonial occasions. Hat making can be done using a variety of materials, including wool, felt, straw, and fabric. The process of hat making involves several steps. First, the hat maker must select the appropriate materials and design the hat according to the intended purpose and style. Next, the hat maker will use a hat block, which is a wooden or metal form, to shape the hat material into the desired shape. This process is known as blocking. After the hat is blocked, the hat maker will then trim the hat using a variety of techniques and materials, such as ribbons, feathers, and beads. This is where the hat can become quite creative and unique. Finally, the hat maker will add a lining and inner band to ensure the hat fits comfortably and securely. Hat making can be a challenging and intricate process that requires skill and attention to detail. It is a craft that has been practiced for centuries and has evolved with fashion trends and technological advances. Today, there are still a dedicated group of hat makers who create high-quality hats using traditional methods, as well as modern techniques and materials. In addition to creating hats, many hat makers offer workshops and classes to teach others the craft of hat making. This helps to preserve the tradition and ensure that future generations can continue to appreciate the art and beauty of hat making. 35 out of print books.

Having decided to make a painted hat, I had to think about style and fabric. A sunhat seemed the best style, so that I will have plenty of surface to paint, and I am going to use a basic cotton fabric that will absorb the paint. The fabric had to be pre-washed to remove any finish, otherwise the paint will not absorb. I also put the fabric through the tumble dryer to make sure there would be no shrinkage problems when painted. If you are not contemplating painting your hat, but just making a general sunhat, you do not have to bother with the washing and drying process. I am using brown wrapping paper to make the pattern, but any wide paper will do, I sometimes use old wallpaper. To make the pattern, I had to take my measurements. Firstly, I measured around my head just above the ears, this measured 58.5 cms. I have decided to use centimetres as they are easier to work with. I then add 3cms to the 58.5 to give me a seam allowance. Total =60cms. Divide this by 3.14 which equals 19.10, then divide by 2 to achieve the final figure of 9.23. This number will be the radius of my first circle. I drew this circle and then a circle just inside of 3cm in depth to give my seam allowance markings. Then from the center of the circle I drew a larger circle for the brim, I have made it approximately 4 inches plus seam allowance. But you can make it however wide or narrow you wish. Remember that the wider it is, the floppier it will be. I then drew two lines at an angle from the outside edge to the inner circle edge, this is because I want the brim to slope slightly, but you can leave it and just draw one straight line. To make the band, I took my original head measurement of 60cms and drew a band that length by about 4.5 inches wide (whoops what happened to metric again!). Again I slightly sloped the edges so that the band will slope up to the crown. Once I had measured my top edge of the band (58cms) I could divide that again by 3.14, then by 2 to work out the radius for the top circle which will be the crown of the hat. Once I had cut out my pattern pieces, I ironed them, to stop the paper curling up! I will be cutting out the pattern once in my main fabric, once in lining fabric and once in interfacing. I am going to use an iron on heavyweight interfacing. I could have used milliners buckram but it would have been too stiff for this hat. At this point it would be best to make up the hat in a scrap fabric, so that you can make any adjustments to the design or sizing. I have cut out the main pieces and interlined them. But I have not cut out the lining yet, as I haven't deceided what fabric to use. But this can come later. Hang onto your pattern and measurements as they can be used as the basis for other hat patterns. Tomorrow will be Part 2 - sewing the hat together.
