Make an party hat!
1. Use paper to make a cone shape pattern template in the size you want.
2. I chose white satin for the
background. Use your template to cut the fabric.
3. Embroider the Birthday Boy or Girl’s
name and “1st Birthday". (see tutorial)
4. Add any other ribbon, trim, buttons or
other decorations.
5. Stitch up the seam in the back and
finish off the raw edges.
6. Add a piece of elastic to go under the
chin.
When I made my first hat I
used plastic needlepoint canvas inside to support the hat. Then I tried using cardboard. Ultimately, I found that it really
doesn’t need anything other than the polyfill or tissue stuffing.
Picking the trim is the
most fun! I loved being able to
use the small scraps and odds and ends that have been collecting in my craft
room.
