The black corduroy cloche that I showed you the other day has now been livened up by a lime green bias tape band.
The red cloche is made from two layers of polar fleece. There’s also a black bias band on the inside, making it fully reversible. My brief for this one was to make it bright red, and soft enough to fold up.
The brim of the red hat is made from two layers of fleece and a layer of craft weight non-woven interfacing. For some reason my sewing machine wasn’t too happy about sewing through the fleece and interfacing combination. I had to try several different needles before I stopped getting lots of skipped stitches.
I’m really pleased with how the finished hat’s turned out though, and I think it will be lovely and cozy to wear. I might make another one for myself.
These are really gorgeous! I love the lime green with the black – though corduroy is one of my very favourite fabrics anyway, so I’m predisposed to like that one 🙂
Thank you!
The lime green is much brighter than it looks in the photo, too.
