*Edit: ZOMG! *dies*

Thank you for the Daily Deviation `znow-white!!! What an honor to be featured!

:iconiloveyouplz:

I hope everyone has a lovely top hat very soon! Make some tophats my pretties!
:excited:


It's finally finished.
I hope you enjoy it, if anything is unclear, please feel free to leave a comment, I will try to elaborate. I'm prettysure everything is clear, but I made the hat, so it might not be clear to everyone.

Here's mine! oh, and this more recent one too...


*The reason I have not put what the seam allowance values, is simply because the fabric has to fit snugly against the cardboard base. I don't want to put a set amount, and have wrinkly hats out there. Thicker fabrics will fit differently than thing ones. So, if you make the hat, sew it to make it as snug as possible to the base, and then cut off the surplus, leaving approximately 1/4" seam allowance.


**If you use this tutorial to make your own hat, please have the courtesy of putting a link back to my tutorial, and leave a comment here with a link to your deviation so that I can see your masterpiece!!

Some Deviants' Tophats!

I am currently making a rather modified version of this with my sister, who is going to Steamcon and needs something to wear. Our's is bigger, and looking awesome so far. Thank you so much for the tutorial! I'll send you a link with pictures when it's finished. :)

Once you've flipped the brim fabric inside-out through the center hole, you may have to curve the cardstock a bit to get it through the hole. Then pull the rest of the fabric over top.
