That's done!

Inspired has spent the better part of the last 4 weeks working on two hats made of flat felt for a contest co-sponsored by Judith M millinery supplier. The deadline for entry was today. The first hat was done about 2 weeks ago. The second hat was finished just under the entry deadline! What a nail-biting couple of weeks! It's going to be exciting to see what milliners have come up with for the contest. Hope that Judith posts lots of entry photos!

Now...on to making hats for Spring. Really looking forward to making some of the ideas I have for hats for young ladies!

Awesome hats

Reactions to custom hats never fails to amaze: Inspired wanted to look spiffy for a meeting this morning and wore a beret made a while back. On the way to the meeting,  made a stop at the bank and the gals loved the hat. Then on the way back from the meeting, Inspired grabbed a coffee at a drive-through and the youngish (probably late college) guy at the window said "awesome hat"! That's not the first time a college age male has commented favorably on my hats. That's intriguing since a female in the same age range as the guys wouldn't be caught dead wearing a nice hat. Maybe a ball cap, or if the weather insists on headwear, a ski type of cap.

Hat production has slowed down! Have been working on a couple of special projects. Hope to get back on track this weekend!
