Beautiful hat, as always. You've inspired me to wear my 20 clone today. Your camera always brings out the richest colors in your photos. Very deep and lush saturation. Great shot. :thumb:
Parker's sewing machine locked up last week while finishing my hat. He was able to get it serviced quickly, though, so I guess it will ship out on Monday.
I'm not even stressed about it, for some reason. I guess I'm more comfortable knowing that the hat is complete and getting ready to ship...

When you reduce a Long Oval or XLO to a standard oval in any given size, will it throw off the proportions of the brim? Or is it simply adjusting the crown opening?
Let me add.. I saw a dark green Resistol Kitten Finish beaver fedora at a local antique market. It was 7 1/2 so it was too big for me. I was tempted to buy it at $40 as an investment to clean it up and sell it for more. The felt was really nice, but it needed a new sweatband and a new liner. I...
