Now I just need to put a girl in it

And pray that it's nice weather next weekend.
Maja's 18th century gown, finished:




I would still like to make a cap though. And I wish I had a little straw hat for her.

Lovely!

What kind of straw hat would that be?

A rather normal one, with a round crown and moderate brim.

I have a really small straw hat with a round crown that I got from Tiger a couple of years back for the straw braids that it's made of. It's probably too small though, only 27 cm across the brim (which is 5-6 cm wide) and inside circumference of crown is not more than 44-46 cm (as an estimate; the inside is hard to measure correctly but the outside cf is ca. 48 cm). Let me know if you are interested, though. It has a tacky red ribbon with small white spots on it, glued on but it seems to come off easily when you pull.

Very cute!

Indiska säljer ibland runda vävda tallriksunderlägg. Jag sydde en vit sammetshatt av en sådan, med lite hjälp av mattfilt för kullen. det var väldigt enkelt. man kan också ha en sådan brätte och göra en kulle av rynkat tyg. :-)

Cool idé!
