Hats in France<\/p><\/div>\n

Travel is fun. Sometimes it brings new creative ideas and other times it reinforces your own. On my recent trip to France, I was delighted to see that dressy summer hats were IN, and what was I working on but the two remaining hat bands shown in my recent blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I put the American Indian floral design\u00a0on a hat for my 3-year-old granddaughter. The hat band was longer than needed so I overlapped the ends when sewing it on the hat.

Imagine a summer wedding with bridesmaids and flower girls in straw hats with floral needlepoint hat bands!<\/em><\/p>\n

The Hawaiian Shark Tooth tattoo custom needlepoint<\/a> hat band went onto an adult straw western hat. The band was a little smaller than the large hat so I made an adjustable button closure with braided thread to match as shown in the detail below.<\/p>\n
