ReplyDeletethis was my first sewing machine project, and it was such a big success even with my crooked stitches that I'm making my seventh hat today ;) not sure I feel confident enough to move on to some other project now!
ReplyDeleteThis would be cool in adult sizes. Do you have this pattern in adult sizes or how to convert to adult sizes?
