I love how this triple series came out. I regret not getting a photo of all three together. The two previous were packaged for the Post Office before I finished this one. I was pretty anxious over a couple things yesterday. So I put on an audiobook and sewed through to escape my thoughts.
This tapered crown shape is one of the most common styles seen during the American Civil War era. I wound black and grey straw vining around the brim. A very pretty and dramatic look. This hat is 21.5″ around the crown and 11″ across the brim.
The three pieces together.
I have just a tiny bit of each left.
The vining trim is stunning! I especially love it on the bonnet!
Best,
Quinn
