I finished the parts to my last two hats. My customer requested purple and turquoise-y-blue, so here is the (almost) finished owl.
The elephant is also coming together. Once again, I still need to sew up all of these parts, but I'm pleased with how my ears turned out as well as the little trunk. My customer, Michelle, and I don't care for a droopy trunk hanging from a hat, so I lightly stuffed, then sewed a connection to turn it upward. I think it will look much better when I can attach it to the hat. (Note: I've read an elephant with an upward turned trunk is good luck anyway :)
I think they've all turned out (so far) much like the schematic I drew up. I hope Michelle likes them too!
Hope you have a lovely evening.
wow they look lovely
