baby sunhat (reversible) #1

It took me three days, but in stages I managed to make this sunhat starting from the fluted hat pattern mentioned in my last post, just with some modifications to the size, some of the construction steps and I made it reversible.

Definitely needs some refining and I made it too small so would fit only a newborn with a head circumference under 34cm, but it felt great to get back into sewing and to actually finish something was bliss!

Watch this space... more creations on their way....

addit: the fluted hat pattern and tutorial that this sunhat was loosely based on can be found here

Cute, love the bright fabric you've chosen!

Did you use a pattern? I'm desperate for a sun hat for the Smurf and can find nothing in the shops that I like.

Is that a Brother sewing machine? I think we have the same machines!
