Sewing  instructions:    
1. Sew  top  of  hat.      
a. Begin  by  sewing  main  fabric  top  
pieces  together.    Place  2  top  
pieces  right  sides  together  and  
sew  along  one  curved  edge  with  
½”  seam  allowance.    Press  seam  
open  with  seam  allowance  to  
the  right  side  of  the  seam.    Align  
third  top  piece,  right  sides  
together,  with  right  curved  edge  
of  sewn  piece,  and  sew  along  
curved  edge.    Press  seam  open  
with  seam  allowance  to  the  
  right  side  of  the  seam.      
b. Repeat  step  1a  with  remaining  
3  fabric  top  pieces.    Attach  both  
top  sections  along  curved  edge,  
right  sides  together.    Sew  with  
½”  seam  allowance.    Clip  to  
seam  line  in  very  center  and  
  press  each  side  of  seam  to  the  
right.    

 
c. Topstitch  if  desired.  
 

 
 
2. Sew  lining  of  hat.

top  pieces.  

 
 
 
3. Sew  rim  of  hat  
a. Iron  interfacing  to  one  of  the  
rim  pieces  (this  one  will  be  the  
bottom  of  the  rim).    Sew  
straight  edge  of  each  rim  piece  
together  with  ½”  seam  
allowance  and  press  seam  
  allowance  open.      
b. Pin  inside  edge  of  non-­‐
interfaced  rim  to  top  of  hat,  
right  sides  facing  and  matching  
seam  on  rim  with  back  of  hat  
top  (you  choose).    Sew  with  ½”  
seam  allowance.  
 
c. Turn  lining  of  hat  right  side  out,  
and  place  inside  inner  edge  of  
interfaced  rim.    Repeat  step  3b  
with  lining  of  hat  and  inner  
edge  of  interfaced  rim,  leaving  
space  4”  gap  in  seam  for  
  turning.      
d. Pin  outside  edge  of  rim  top  and  
bottom  pieces  together,  right  
sides  together,  matching  up  
back  seams,  and  sew  with  ½”  
seam  allowance.    Trim.

hole  in  seam.    Press  rim.

hole  closed  by  hand.    You  can  
add  a  label  here  before  closing,  
if  desired.

of  rim  and  again  ¼“  from  inner  
edge  of  rim  to  finish.      
g. Put  it  on!    YOU’RE  DONE!
