recently a friend of mine passed, i made this for the funeral. so this isnt the cheeriest how to ever but i wanted to make it non the less. oh and you can sew or glue, i used my glue gun becouse its easier :/ for the people who know my other projects, its not Jay as in red hood. i actually had a friend whith that name. cya later dude. oh and i got the templates for the hat here:http://www.fleecefun.com/mini-top-hat.html

Instructions

  1. Small 2014 03 04 224012 img 20140304 01440

    so i traced the paterns on the fabric and cut it out.

  2. Small 2014 03 04 224109 img 20140304 01444

    and i traced that on craft foam for durability, make sure to make the foam pieces a little smaller than the fabric so you can fold the fabric around the foam, i used a no sew way to make this so i just used my glue gun to glue both sides on the fabric together. also make sure to make a hole in the biggest circle so the top can go in.

  3. Small 2014 03 04 224321 img 20140304 01445

    glue-ing the smallest circle and the biggest part together.

  4. Small 2014 03 04 224408 img 20140304 01447

    than connect the two sides of the big part and put the top of the hat in the circle, glue.

  5. Small 2014 03 04 224536 img 20140304 01448

    should look something like this.

  6. Small 2014 03 04 224601 img 20140304 01452
