Gentleman's Challenge #13: Handsewn Headwear

[Captain Shipton Bellinger]

A couple of late entries on behalf of the Memsahib (Silk Willoughby):

First, her own cap in green satin, embroidered with butterflies and flowers. Sadly the flash did not capture the sparkly swarovsky crystals or the green glass bead which make up the flower stems (it really is very sparkly).


Lining in quilted pale grey satin with pocket.


And lastly, my favourite - because it's my hat. Black satin with a gear-and-leaf motif. The crystals show up rather better on these pictures.


Lining in quilted orange satin with pocket.

I am wearing this cap at this very moment.

Two lovely hats.  I bet that they are both flattering and comfortable to wear.

Challenge officially closes at 12 pm today, GMT.
I will set up a poll tomorrow - may the best headwear win!!

[Banfili]

The poll is up - everybody vote!!

Congratulations to all who submitted entries - there is a fantastic selection to choose from!

I am a bit embarrassed as the challenger not to have an entry, but circumstances just did not permit me the time. I will have a chance to complete a bit later on in the year & will post pics then.

Thank you all for participating.

You have my name in the poll? I honestly don't remember submitting anything.

…Was it a nice hat?

[Banfili]

von Corax, of course it was a nice hat - they were all nice hats!!

Now all everybody needs to do is pick their winners!

[frances]

I'm just pleased that I finished mine.  Without this Challenge it would still be unfinished.  So thanks to you all for joining in with me - it made it more fun.             

[Banfili]

Strange, no one seems to have voted on the headwear!

[von Corax]

Maybe you could provide a link to the submission post for each hat, for us lazy buggers? (Also, I'm really curious to see what you think I submitted.)
