Gail's Hat 2.0

I know I said in my last post that I wasn't going to change Gail's hat.

But after I saw my sister's hat, I really didn't like the gray one, despite the fact that I still like the idea of a gray summer hat.

So, I made a new hat for Gail. It is black, with a red ribbon that is transparent, so that you can see the straw through the ribbon.

The hat has a smaller brim in general, and a narrow brim in the back, which I think will fit Gail's style. The brim won't get in the way. She wears these colors frequently.

This was my first try at hemming the ribbon with a contrasting ribbon. I also learned how to fit the ribbon around the crown by adjusting the wire inside the ribbon.

I have not decided what I'll make with the grey hat yet.
