| hat paper patterns |
Back when I got the grosgrain fabric, I also met my friend Pedro, who works in Campo de Ourique. While excitedly telling him about my lucky purchase and my cosplay plans (it was at a costume party at his place, I debuted as a cosplayer, with Black Lady, from Sailormoon R), looking at the hat, he suggested, "why don't you make a purse inside the hat?" I've been thinking about it since, and I figured out how I'm going to make it, because it's a great idea!
The hat base pattern I took from a hat I own and actually wear a lot. The inside of Hokuto's hat will be built like my hat, in a six part dome, with a zipper in the middle. The brim will be wider, and turned up, of course. Maybe I'll add some wire to keep it in place. Then the crown is a big upside down cone, gathered at the top. There will be a stiff felt structure inside, to add height to the hat and will be the "purse" part. I'll also add some ribbons to the side, to double as ties and a purse strap.
+ I think it worked fine, we'll see when I make the mock-up.
- I really hope all this weird hat-purse will work out in the end.
THE CUNNING PLAN
Make a mock-up ASAP.
