It's very different to see you in such a hat, but it looks great, and it is a beautiful Open Road - the 3X felt is fantastic.

Its a beauty! That ribbon is wide enough to drive on almost....

I like the was the bow knot twists and the back of the bow has the frayed treatment.

30's Barbisio - Optimo Refurb

I've had this 1930's Barbisio Velour for awhile then sold it to Sue and bought it back from her with a project in mind - turning it into a hat like the character "JJ" wore in "The Sting"

Here is the final product:

Deep Eggplant color with a silver ribbon and black liner

I really like the contrast between the silver ribbon and the eggplant color velour felt (always a bonus). This one is going turn some heads! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap
