A friend of mine just had her first baby girl. I remembered that Ashley made some really cute newborn hats out of knit. Her fabric was to die for! Her knit was quite a bit more spendy then I like, but it was extremely cute. I found mine at HL.
When I bought the knit I had envisioned using it to make a few circle skirts for Tana, but it didn't end up being wide enough. I just couldn't let this cute fabric go to waste. I am a SUCKER for zebra print. Especially on a sweet baby girl.
I stuck pretty close to the tutorial, except my band and hat pieces did not line up so I had to trim some off before sewing the two pieces together. I also did not make my flower out of knit. I used broadcloth because it is super cheap. And I did not attach the flower directly to the hat. I glued the flower to a pin so that it can be removed.
And since making these hats has made me realize how much I miss my little babies, I found a video of little Tana. Such a pretty little girl, packed with a whole lot of tude!
I have no idea who the crazy lady talking in the video is. I must have been picking up someone else's frequency when I shot this. Please just ignore the voice. Really... ignore it!
