Hand FINISHED finally

I had asked for advice for this hat months ago. Now it's finally finished. Hooray. Much blood went into the making of this. Also lots of love and the occasional gift. It's for a friend with emblem of their trade and some queer flower language :)

I had asked about how to fill the umbrella. I tried a few things, in the end i went with satin and back stitch over the satin to secure it,

It looks amazing! I put a lot of blood into a hat myself last year and it didn't look nearly as good as this does!

Awww thank you. Some bits, especially on the seams are soooo hard to get through 🫣

the satin fill with back stitch over it is a clever way to lock everything down, especially on a curved surface like a hat.
