hello everyone welcome back to my channel i hope you're all doing good today
if you're new here welcome and if you returning subscriber welcome as well guys do you remember
this pattern remember we use this pattern to make a bucket hat so because you guys
love it i decided to make another hat it is a very very good head accessory especially for
summer the inspiration actually came because i made this wrap trouser i felt all right why
not use the remaining fabric i have to make the sun hat so today i'm going to show you
how you can make this sun hat so if you already have this pattern get it ready because we are
going to be using two of these patterns we'll be using the top pattern and then the side pattern
we will not be using the brim so i can take this out we will be constructing another brim
suitable for the sun hat so if this is something you like to see let's get to it
these are the fabrics that i'll be using to make this on hat you know we need two
fabrics like i said we will be needing these two patterns so i can put this aside for now
the first thing that you should do is to measure what you have here at the bottom of this pattern
the measurement that i got here is 12.4 inches so i'm going to multiply that by 2 times 2 that
gives me 24.8 inches so now i'm going to use this measurement to construct a 360 degree circle okay
to get the circle that will be 24.8 inches divided by six point two eight what i have is three point
nine four i can actually approximate that to four inches so i am going to be cutting a 360 degree
circle with a radius of 4 inches so one other thing you should do is to determine the width
of your brim the question now is how wide do you want it i'm going to go with 6 inches let's see
what it looks like so you can use that as a guide when you want to make yours let us
assume that this is my fabric right so you're going to fold your fabric this way
all right and then fold it this way that means you're folding into four right
and then you have to ensure that what you have is nothing less than 10 inches okay
so if i measure here i have 11 inches which is perfect come to the corner here and then you
mark 4 inches which is the radius and 10 inches at the same time you know that's how we do it right
so you're going to cut 0.5 inch away from the radius
and then 0.5 inch here for the joining allowance right
this is a new pattern the next thing we're going to do is to cut this out
on the fabric i'm going to cut one of these two of this and then one of this for each of the fabric
so to cut this you know it really won't be nice to start cutting this circle this way so i'm going
to fold it back fold it into four like it was and then i'm going to fold the fabric into four
so this is it
so i have my pattern all right for one of the fabrics so i'm going to
use these same patterns to cut out this fabric as well so looking at this i have
two of these for each of the fabric two of this okay two
i have two of this that is one for each of the fabric
one and then i have two of these one of these rather for each of the fabrics right
i have one of these right so my pattern is complete the next thing i'm going to do is to iron
the fusible interfacing on the wrong side of all the patterns this fabric because it's light okay
this is it i have high under interfacing on the wrong side
of each of the patterns this one this pink fabric right so the next thing i want you to do
is to fold it back fold it into two just like this and then you cut one part open
i'm going to tell you the reason why i asked you to cut it while we are sewing it okay
so this is what we have now so guys let's go ahead and sew this together these are the patterns one
two and three one two and three all right so the first thing we're going to do is to
join the patterns let us start with this i'm going to sew this right side facing right side
the next thing is to get the sides i'm going to sew it to the brim so looking at this you
see we have a middle already and then on this as well we have a middle so i'm going to place
the right side of this middle on the right side of this make sure you get the middle
the center okay open the seam allowance and then i'm going to sew with a 0.5 inch seam allowance
so this is what we want all right so i'm going to be doing the same thing for this pattern this one
and then guys remember that i asked you to cut this out you see that this place at this place
doesn't match all right so i'm going to cut out the excess that i have here
that was why i have to cut this 360 help so that if we have an excess fabric we will be able to
adjust it but if you didn't cut it out you would have a gap here
so i am going to trim this out so that i can still have my circle in place first let us sew this
next thing i'm going to do is to fold it like this right side facing right side
match it up this way this is the excess that i have so i'm going to cut it out
this is what i have now
so the next thing i'm going to do is to close it up from here straight down
with a 0.25 inch allowance and i'm going to do the same thing here
the next i'm going to do is to attach the top of the hat so this will go with this and
this will go with this so it will be the right side okay so i'm going to open it up like this
and then i'm going to place this top on it all right so
one thing you should do is this you should notch it
okay notch it this way
so this one as well you're going to notch it in four places
fold
it into 4 and notch
so we have four notches i'm going to do the same thing here
now that i have everything notched in four places both the top
and the main heart what i'm going to do is to place the notches against each other
then i am going to sew round this top hat so by the time i'm done sewing
i'm going to have something like this all right so now that i have sewn it what i'm
going to do next is to notch it around okay so i'm going to do that for the other one as well
for the other fabric i'm going to sew it so the top and then i'm going to notch it okay around
so i have sewn it this is it on the right side you see it's beautiful actually i didn't know
this fabric was going to turn out the sweets it's very very beautiful so i'm going to put
the right side of this inside this so this is the right side of this fabric and this
is the right side of this fabric put it inside align it well you see this seam here i'm going
to match it with this thing as well so i'm going to pin it all around and then i'll sew all round
but i'll leave a space of about four inches on sewn so that i can pull this
inside out okay okay guys so i have sewn this round i've turned it round so i'm going to
turn it inside out and another thing i did after sewing it round was to notch you see
so now i'll turn it inside house
so after doing this what i'm going to do is to tuck this in and then i'll top stitch it
after top stitching i'm going to iron it well okay and then i'll show you the outcome so here it is
this is one side and then this is the other side so you can wait either way you want okay so like
this so you can wear it like this and then you can wear it this way as well just turn it inside out
so the width of your brim okay i mean this part here the width depends on what you want
if you want it to be really wide i used six inches for this and one other thing is this
this part is slouchy it's not really standing well okay so when you're making yours you can
use a light a hard fusible interfacing i used the light fusible interfacing on this part okay so you
can use a hard one so that it can stand well like what we have on the thumbnail okay so guys thank
