A Magic Trick- Bunny turns into a Frog!

I love interesting and challenging projects.  I had a customer that requested this bunny hat be turned into a frog hat, similar to the small frog plushie.  It was tricky.  I removed the ears and trimmed, stuffed and reattached them as eyes.  I then covered the whole bunny face with the new frog's mouth.

After a wave of my magic sewing needle- tada!

I am quite happy with the results.



Ham Bag Hat!

My husband works in the garage in all kinds of weather, making guitars and ukuleles.  In the summer, to keep the sweat out of his eyes (and keep the sawdust out of his hair), he wears Ham Bag Hats.  This started a long time ago and yes, it was really the muslin bag that hams come in.  He has finally worn out/lost all his ham bags, so I made him some new ones.

 The basic shape is how we remembered it to be- slightly asymmetrical. I cut out 2 pieces, serged them together and that was it.

 He uses the "tail" to clean his glasses with!

A lovely Ham Bag Hat.

Adventure Time Hat

My son loves the show "Adventure Time" on Cartoon Network.  The main character always wears a white hat with ears, so I chose a fleece out of my stash.

 I just guessed at the size, since he was in school when I made it.  I drew directly on the fabric.

 I added a couple extra layers in the ear area to make the ears stand up.

Then I cut a hole for his face, serged the edges and it was done!  I love a quick project like this and he loves it!
