Hats allow me to be creative in a way that sewing garments cannot; they have the potential to be more theatrical, unique, subdued yet classy... I could go on. There is also a meditative element to hand sewing a hat from start to finish--it becomes a piece of you and a part of you is absorbed into it.
About Me
I have an MA in Art History but it turns out that museums and art galleries are not the place for me. I've sewn for years and, to try something new, I decided to make a hat. I fell in love and have been dabbling ever since.
I hope this site inspires you to achieve more. Millinery is an amazing creative Art.

Enjoy, Elaine.
