Out of my sketch book and on to my hook!  This weekend my first dream hat pattern came to life… I’m calling it Sadie (A turn of the century family name),,, Sadie is a 1920’s inspired Cloche…  In honor of my Grandmother, Beatrice Ryan Ramshaw!  I dream of her wearing something like this as a young woman to a party or dance… And the colors,,, A Sea Spray Blue… This floods back memories of her,,, She drove a 1970 Sea Spray Colored Cadillac… Some of the best childhood memories were with her driving  and my cousin and I sliding across the back seats of that Cadillac,,, Power window and plenty of room for my cousin and I to have tons of girl fun while driving through town with Bea!!!  And who could pass up a purple hat… My favorite color as a girl,,, And of course she painted my childhood room for me in a great shade of purple!

.

So are you ready to see Sadie??  Here are the first two Sample Hats…
