very nice, Josh!
It sure looks like the X on the back bow is a protective basting stitch. Interesting that it often remains in place.
Thanks, Alan! I have often wondered about the "x" on bows. It never seems to be tight against the ribbon, nor does it even seem to be perfectly center. I have had a good amount of early hats with that "x" stitch and always just thought it was a design. Now that you mention it, I bet it is a basting stitch!
