‘Hattitude’: Multi-colored newsboy hats

Three eight-paneled, multi-colored crowns for newsboy hats in shades of green, burgundy and reddish-orange Four eight-paneled, multi-colored crowns for newsboy hats in shades of off-white, tan, dark green and cream

Warm reds and cool tans: I love the way these color panels work together in crowns for what will be newsboy-style hats, sewn for Hat People in southern Oregon. Cool linen will be just the thing during warmer months.

I like to think the autism spectrum was an asset when I assembled these crowns.

The panels were arranged so that colors would line up diagonally. Before sewing any panels, I visualized their assembly in order to make sure my work was “on track” with the designer’s intention.

Coding credit: I relied upon Paul Divers at Irish Light and Color for an explanation of how to generate a table to display these photos side-by-side
