Top Hat Band Lace And Gears
Hat Band 2- red satin with lace and clock parts

About
I had a strip of burgundy fabric that I used as an emergency hat band... that I decided to make into a "real" one.
I dug into my boxes of gears, parts, beads, and found a scrap of lace that almost went completely around the hat AND was about as wide as the strip of fabric.
I estimate about an hour because of all the hand sewing and fiddling around with placement.
Note- I made this before I joined, so most of the images are ones that I made afterwards to show the steps. More images to come.
