Considering how jam packed I knew this summer would be, I didn't plan to get many stitching projects completed...but fitting in a little bit here and a little bit there has been surprisingly productive. (Granted, all the projects have been a bit little too.)
This bucket hat uses the same stencil as my keyhole tank, but the hat pattern comes from Alabama Studio Sewing & Design (the final book in the Alabama Chanin studio series). I recommend making the pattern at least 10% smaller than the pattern provided in the book. I made a sample first with no embellishment, directly from the pattern, and then made this one smaller -- and if I make another, I'll do it even smaller as the cotton jersey tends to stretch with wear.
Love this, Gina! You are so gifted and such a hard worker!

That is super cool. I love how your stitching projects keep up the style of your lettering and illustration work. It's all a "cohesive collection" as they might say on Project Runway.
