This comment is long but if you are looking for alternative methods to help make this hat skim this comment it may help) Thank you so much for this tutorial. It was legit the only source that could help me with this project. Im being a fairy for halloween and it was a great tutorial! I didnt want to buy fabric stiffener because it was like 16 bucks but i used hairspray. It didnt hold as well as i hoped but my boss at joanns told me to mix elmers glue with water and spray that and it does the same thing so if anyone else is reading this and wondering, try that instead!

Oh and i did not have any needlefelting materials so i just used green felt cut into strips and used a bit of hot glue to wrap a wire to make a curly calyx. The only part i actually sewed was the petals together. Rest was hot glue and it turned out amazing. I had some trouble keeping my hat on with the extra weight from the wire and glue, but i got this BRILLIANT idea to glue little (strong) magnets onto the inside of the hat and put a few anchoring hair pins on my head (basically straight back from my temples) and it worked so well im really proud of the idea… heh.

I’m glad the glue was a good workaround for you!! One reason that I sprung for the Milliner’s fabric stiffener is that I knew I would be making a hat I would be wearing to perform eight weekends of renfest outdoors, but there’s not a WRONG way to make a project for yourself!

This is really neat. I may make one for my daughter eventually. I'll probably cheat and use hot glue to attach the stem... Because that's my jam.

I LOVE THIS !!!! So interesting, lovely and informative . Thank you for such an interesting video filled with actual informative visuals as well I want to do this! Your kitty is super adorable and so beautiful!! Felt is such a good idea and I love the way you painted it to look like petals do. You are genuinely artistic and creative 😻😺😸😻💗🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️💗💕💕 Also the measurement diagrams you drew were really visually helpful and clear too! Also I've never seen anyone dry felt before it looks really fun!!!! Thank you for all this information I wanted to make big flowers for Halloween outside decorations I think this might be how I'll do that!! Right sides together is the right way for petals because that's how they unfold - This is so gorgeous and so realistic! Xxxx 💖💕💗😻🥰😍😻😊🥰😍🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️💗💗💕💖💕💖💜😻
