| The completed hat frame, from the bottom. Most of the brim and the crown were reinforced with some Pellon. |
 |
| Starting to cover the hat with some gray satin. |
 |
| Close up of some of the stitching |
 |
| The crown is covered! |
 |
| The underneath of the brim, covered with a pleated piece of plaid taffeta. |
 |
| The back of the brim (the un-reinforced section) will be turned up when I'm done. |
 |
| The covered hat! |
 |
| The covered hat with the brim flipped up |
 |
| Layers of trim were added to the top brim -- silver lace, black lace, black ribbon, red ribbon and some braid... |
 |
| The same braid that was added the underneath of the brim to cover the edges of the satin |
 |
| Please excuse the sideways photo, but here's the completed hat with lace, ribbon tails, a few fabric flowers and some feathers. |
 |
| And a close up of the finished hat. The big flower has a button and a gear holding it in place |
