Making a Patchwork Witch Hat - Part 2 - Light - Halloween

 
 
 
It's that time again!
 
It's October! 
 
When the sky starts to get a bit more rainy, the leaves begin to turn color, and the ghosties, ghouls, and goblins start coming out to play. 
 
This month, we'll be doing a make-a-long in the form of a Witch Hat! You can sew this by machine, or by hand. By machine is ideal.
 
This video goes through the addendum to the materials list, and the "light" version of this hat.
 
(Also, don't at me cause in the video I spelled addendum wrong.  It was 4am when I finished editing this video.  I think we need to live with a few imperfections)
 
We have some cottagecore vibes and construction instructions for you, for those early fall and first half of October vibes. 
 
So, grab your cozy drink of choice, grab your scraps, and let's get stitching!

Making a Patchwork Witch Hat - Part 1 - Halloween!

 

 

It's that time of year! My favourite time of year, so lets get spooky with this kooky scrappy patchwork hat!

This is part 1 of 2. 

Part 1 being the basic supplies and sorting out the math you'll need to make this hat!

I've also confirmed that the Excel spreadsheet link works, as I used it for this project, which is courtesy of hellowsewing.com at the link below, which will go directly to the spreadsheet download.

I'll see if I can make a copy of the math, but as a google sheets version for ease of access.

I'm still waiting for more material to come in, which shouldn't take too long historically speaking from the store I bought them from. But...I'll be filming a bit of the process while waiting for it to come in so I can get part 2 out ASAP!

You can hand sew this, or use a machine. Totally up to you.

I hope you'll join me on this sewing adventure!
