Happy Saturday,
I hope everyone is having a great weekend! We finally had a sunny day, a little on the cold side but I will take it. Next Saturday is the pumpkin festival which a yearly event. Keene, NH actually made the Guinness Book of World Records 8 times for over thirty thousand carved pumpkins. My husband and I don't go on Saturday anymore there are just too many people. Keene has about 22,000 and about 28,000 attend the event from all over the country.... So in honor of that I made this spooky witches hat. And lastly, I am so excited I am going to be a guest designer in November for 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog!!!
The hat was fun to make but a bit of a challenge. I bought a cardboard frame at Michaels then I bought fabric from Joannes which I used to cover the hat. I also bought the tulle which I gathered around the brim. Here is a picture of the hat before it was decorated.
Here is a different angle:
How about a closer look at Tilda:
Here is what I used to create my project:
