A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion Hobbies, Crafts and Creativity Made this Shamrock hat a few years ago..

Had to get the shamrock hat out an show someone how .
It is a bit worn from lyin around.

WOW Dodge that's Pretty!!! I love the design in it!!!!!

Thank You Kindly Diane,

The design is sheer material ......It covers the entire hat. I made another lady a st patricks day card from the left overs and she loved it .

lovely. Will you wear it on the 17th?

i like

Thanks ladies.

I cant wear it , it is solid cardboard on the bottom.. Hangs on the wall flat.

It was just a brain storm.

Love that!! How did you make that? James and I are both Irish. His family goes all out for St. Pat's Day. We walk in the parade and all.

That is very cool, Dodge!

Hubby is Irish.

I just used 2 pieces of cardboard ....big plate and small one .

I made it up.

cut material larger than the circle.....pull the large one tight and tie it .

take the small one and ( 2 materials there white and sheer shamrock one)
pull it tight but stuff it with fiber fill .......to the shape you want , then tie it and put the 2 tied pieces together and sew around the edge of the small one catch the large one as you go.

Try it .

Thanks

I started out making tiny pin cushion hats .. Just one small cardboard circle and stuffed the top.......Then came st patricks day and I had seen the fancy material......I grabbed it and went home.
Well I paid for it ..LOL

And that began my hat. :ding:

Better late than never..
