My finished hat...
...with its bold colourway...
...really kept the chill away...
...while I was in NYC over Thanksgiving!
Once home, however...
...I decided to 're-style' it into more of a cloche.
I soaked the hat overnight...
...trimmed 5 inches from the bottom...
...and fashioned it into a new...
...and radically different hat! :)
Next time: a hat made from (mostly) scraps!

It looks gorgeous. It will go with almost everything you want to wear it with!
So beautiful hats! I particularly love your modified cloche hat. The silk strips combination is really great. Love the color too.
Gorgeous and I love the restyle!
Rachel--Thanks! I love felt hats that can be worn with many outfits. :)
Terriea--I'm glad you like it. My friend, Kiki, dyed the (non-patterned) silk and it's really gorgeous.
Pearl--Thanks! It took a bit of courage to cut into it, but I like the result.
