Artist's Comments

My third attempt at millinery, although the other two have not yet been submitted, my gallery is far from chronological.

This is brushed satin on buckram with stripy cotton, voile and ostrich feather trim. You might recognise it (hopefully) from here [link] I think it turne out rather well for an early effort, I had to make a few changes to the original design but you can still see the inspiration.

I fell in love with Ellaine's Dark Cabaret dress and she gave me permission to make the outfit from her design. This is just the hat, I will upload the whole dress later

Bought items: Feather, Flower (on back)
Pattern: Me (Although with hindsight would have been quicker to buy one

That was quick. I used the backram the same way as I would cardboard (for the cardboard mock-up) but because it has the glue to one side, you can iron on the fabric you want to use really smoothly.

the problem I had with cardboard one I made was I could get the material smooth and flush to the cardboard and the glue I used showed up on the black fabric. lol!
so maybe buckram will work better.

You won't have any of the glue show up if you use buckram, I found myself having to use quite a hot iron though so you might need to think about that when choosing a fabric. It mostly just trial and error though :)

I bought mine from here [link] the website is terrible, but the fabric is cheap. They ship internationally.
