Hi I am Elizren and this is my first post. I hope you like it. I love fashion especially thrifting and repurposing things. This is an old fleec jacket i bought at thrift for $2.00, I wanted a hat to wear to Renaissance Fair but I thought I could make one. So I cut out a pattern from an old grocery bag using a hat I had - I just traced and cut around the top and sides of the hat to create the pattern then I sewed it together and Voila! Instant Renaissance hat. I plan on making a few more and I wanted to insert silky, brocade and tapestry type fabrics to make it more "period" like for the Renaissance costuming. For the flower which you can attach to the hat - I cut out petals and sewed them together and I coiled some of the side seam for the flower center. For complete details check out my youtube video at Elizren's channel. xxoo
