[@SHMillinery]

Thank you 😊

[@LaBricoleuse]

This is so helpful. I looked for a good video on this back at the beginning of the pandemic and found very little useful content.

[@SHMillinery]

Thank you Rachel, yes I am trying to do lots of short but helpful tutorials.

Hi, Thank you for the tip. Yours, Ann

[@sueranbarger5874]

Thank you for these super tips. I wondered, does the plate need to be the same diameter as my hat brim or will making the petersham curve help it work on most size brims?

[@SHMillinery]

It works best if the same size, but a bit smaller will work as well.

Good morning,
Please I have a question
It's quite different 😔
I am supposed to make a very wide brim hat that I have to cover with a fabric
I used two layers of sinamay and stiffened it
The brim wasn't strong after adding the fabric even when I wired
My question is
what did I do wrong??
Is there any other alternative to sinamey??

[@SHMillinery]

Hi, Only lightweight fabric works well over sinamay, and then you also have to stiffen the fabric. I do show covering buckram with fabric in this video ruclips.net/video/ALiCx4gFU0o/видео.html which is the method I use

[@Nobody7011-i6h]

@@SHMillinery thank you Ma, I appreciate 🙏
