Super !!!
Is there Seam Allowances already on the pattern?
Yes, a 1/2″ seam allowance is already included! ๐
Thanks!
cant wait to make it woo
Hey, Courtney!
You’re my favorite designer here! As fall comes, with strong flavors from the 90s, I wondered if you would be willing to think blue velvet dress thoughts… like that off the shoulder full skirted formal that floats around pinterest…
is there a “FOLD” line indicated on the Bucket Hat pattern?
Hi, Diane! No, none of the bucket hat pieces are cut on the fold. ๐
The directions mention “on the fold.” It also seems like there is a small point in the middle of the pattern for the brim that I thought might be the fold line. Thanks for the tip.
Thanks also on the tip about the fold.. I was missing the mental layout on the fabric. Thatโs always a helpful visual at the start.
finally an extra large hat without me adding/adjusting a pattern.
Can this be lined?
Hi Katherine! This pattern is fully reversible and includes a lining. ๐
As stated, in the ‘cut 1 etc.’ instructions it’s not lined.
To make a lined version, you need:
1 Crown, 2 Side & 2 Brim pieces in EACH of 2 fabrics,
OR
2 Crown, 4 Side and 4 Brim pieces in a single fabric,
Plus 2 Brims cut in fusible interfacing.
The construction order needs changing to make a fully lined and reversible hat:
Other comment is that the sizing is on the tight side – if in doubt. make the size up.
canโt wait to make this.
i love the bucket hat.
Thank you for such a fun pattern! I made one this weekend and have at least 4 more on my list to make!
I just saw Jess on Oklaroots make this hat and I can’t wait to give it a try. Thanks so much! I look forward to pouring through your website!
I also discovered it via OklaRoots and am going to make one today for an upcoming cruise to Bermuda!! THANKS, MOOD!!!!
Thank you for the pattern. I saw this on OklaRoots, too. Now I’m excited to look around your site.
Jess from Okla Roots recommended this! Canโt wait to try this pattern!
Are there templets? I can’t seem to find. Them.
Iโm a sewer. Canโt wait to make
Just saw Jess from Okla Roots make this, off to get some fusible interfacing.
love this idea, but where in the instructions does it mention how to make it fully reversible? I imagine you make another hat and attach it wrong sides together, but would you have a double brim or just make one brim with 2 separate fabrics on it? Thank you!
Hi, Wendy! Correct, you can make two full layers of the hat and attach them face to face at the brim. Leave about 3″ open along the outside of the brim to turn your hate right side out and then close the opening when you topstitch the brim. Hope that makes sense! ๐
thank you for the free bucket hat pattern, I can’t wait to ma make two of them
Saw this on Jessโ video. Made one for my granddaughter last week. Turned out great ! Thank you !
I made two for my kids today. Now my daughter’s camp class of 36 will be making them this week.
Thanks so much for this pattern. Turned out great!!
I love your site I made one of your pattern and it came out perfect keep up the good work. God bless
Thanks u very much for the pattern it turns out great
Great pattern, instead of putting round to round, sew it flat then seam and it comes out very nice and the best part – no pinning!
What type of fabric would be best to make this a rain hat? Would outdoor fabric work? I like the idea of making one that will fit my Large head.
Hi Mau! We have a bunch of water-repellent fabrics, particularly canvas and poplin, that would be perfect for this project. ๐
Can’t wait to try pattern
I made this to match a quilted coat I just finished. I used your pattern to make a reversible bucket hat in six pink colorways! Wish I could attach a photo. Thank you for the free pattern!
