Beautiful ribbon work John.
Welcome backMy day job & back problems had gotten me behind, but tonight the Midnight Hatter rides again!
Already replied. I love it and I think the ribbon color works great with the felt color.If you missed it, the new bow on your Stagecoach is done, see below. I brushed the hat but did not reshape the brim or crown. Please see my PM & get back to me re shipping arrangements.
Indeed it seems that there is a lot of hat work around. I think I couldn't be a hatter. Would hate everyone asking for brim trimming but it is something I might like because I do like to work with my hands (after 20 years working on computers, I can see how boring they are).This used to be a hobby but is fast becoming a calling. Managing it and my other commitments has made me The Midnight Hatter ;-)
Never been there but I do plan to go there at least once in my lifetime. I do know some people that live in Madeira.Yes, indeed first work to go "across the pond." I'm pleased it'll be going to Portugal, as my grandfather was Portuguese (from the islands though - Madeira).
Thank you.Also, Joao, you wear them well. I'll check your PM.
Yes he does and you are one of the guilty persons for his volume of hat work.Nice work John G.! Congrats on your hat Joao. It looks really nice. John does real good work!

Oldest go out first, but I will also acknowledge receipt of two other hats for renovation, that will soon be moving _way_ up the list.
JG, out.
True Richard. I'll enjoy it once it arrived at my house, until then can only drool on the picturesHoley Cow;
That's not a conversion that's a reincarnation!
Splendid work, Enjoy Joao.

Joao, I haven't done anything at all with the brim. I think it's ok, but can re-flange, etc. if you want. I think it looks pretty good as is.

wow, the ribbon id wider than the brim!? Need a magnifying lens to find the brim it that. lolTeasers of Justin's hat. The bow is original, but the ribbon has a tear and needs replaced.
Not my hat... yet because I haven't payed it... yet.Aw man! Was that your hat Joao?! John sent it to me by mistake and I already cut the brim down to 2 1/2 inches for a conversion project!
