Lady Diane made this Bowler
for clowning around in too. It is really a fantastic and well done
hat! |

This Beautiful cloth bonnet was made by Deb Hathaway
on a FEZ Hat Shaper. See what you can do with a little imagination?

Elsa Leyden made these beautiful men's
hats with her own alpaca fiber.
A Gambler, and Amish, a Fedora, and an Explorer Fedora.
The trims and accessories really make a great difference.
Great job Elsa!
Thanks for sharing. |

Elsa "Overdyed" the alpaca
fiber to make these fabulous women's hats. The hatbands are perfect!
She used a Bucket Hat Shaper, a Dome and a Gambler to make these. Well
Done Elsa! |

Marna Jean Davis does incredible things with a FEZ Hat
Shaper. These are 1888 and 1890 Capote Bonnets. Marna Jean gives
lessons for making hats. Her students are very pleased to have Hat Shapers
to help them shape their hats. If you want more information on her hats or
her classes got to http://www.shootingstarhistory.com |

These are the Explorer Fedoras
that are seen in the slide show on the homepage. They are made from
Llama. There is a padded sweatband on the inside, a nice milliner's
ribbon hatband and bow and the outside and the brim is finished with a piece
of double folded bias tape. |
 |
This beautiful hat was made at
the Seldom Scene Farm by Lindy... She used overdyed alpaca fiber on a
Padre. The Bow is a lovely touch. |
|
This beautiful hat was especially designed for a
special class taught by Marna Jean Davis. It is loosely based on a
drawing found in the1886 Bloomingdale Brother's catalogue. She
named it the Welsh Crown. |
 |
I made these hats using a
knit and felt hat pattern.
I used the
Original Classic Dome
to shape and dry them on.
My husband makes the hatstands and
sells them for $10.00 each.
Send us an email if you are interested. |

I knit and felted this brown wool hat
using a 'knit and felt' pattern, too.
I shaped and blocked it on
the Fedora Hat Shaper. |
Dana made
this great hat using the Western Style Hat Shaper. She finished the edge with a
great stitch! Dana said this was called a McClellan Style Crown.
I love it! |
 |
|
If you look hard you will see that
this is an officer's hat.
Well, a reproduction anyhow.
Dana used the WWI Campaign Style Hat Shaper to
make this creation |
|
|
I think this is my favorite,
so far anyhow. This great wool hat was made on our Amish Style Hat
Shaper. I can hardly wait to see how Dana will embellish this! |

This photo was sent in by Barb Marr of Marr Haven in Allegan,
Michigan.http://www.marrhaven.com. Her customer Judy Jergensen of Custom Cameos, makers of
cameo jewelry featuring families and their pets, made this on one of our Original Classic
Dome Hat Shapers.
Judy says, "The Cloche is made out of cotton brocade fabric. The Hat Shaper
really helps when I steam the crown of the Cloche." Nicely done Judy.
Thanks for sending us the photo Barb! |
