I'm a visual learner and purchased 3 other tutorials from Etsy before I realized I can't follow written instructions lol. I need to see it showed to me unfortunately. Thank you for making this video and being very clear and concise as it is very helpful for learners like me!
My grandmother made one for me back in the late 70's while she was still alive. I wished for many years that I still had it. Now I can make one in the black and white buffalos print like my original and something fun in another print and have 2 looks unlike the original which was only a single. Thanks so very much. This will be fun.
Such a clear tutorial! I watched it only once. Amy was SO clear on every detail! Downloaded the pattern and sewed up the cutest bucket hat this afternoon! (in my house they are called "fishin' hats"!! Thanks so much!! All my boys will be getting new fishin' hats for Christmas this year!
Great tutorial and I love the hat. I can imagine machine embroidering on it before sewing the pieces together. This is going to be fun, especially making some for the Grands. Thank you!
I made the hat using 'oil cloth'...the material that you might spread on a picnic table. I used interfacing and lined the hat. Happy with the result but (a) hat is a little too stiff to squash into a bag and (b) I had difficulty at one place where the machine struggled a little to cross a thick spot. Hope to try another one in a more pliable oilcloth. Good luck making your hat.
@@amydomke605 Thanks, but can you be a bit more specific? How many inches around is this hat? Once I know that I could look up head size for toddler I'm guessing?
Hi. I love your pattern, thank you! I have been looking to buy a bucket hat for my 6 month old granddaughter, the infant size is to small for her. Do you have a pattern, for 6 to 9 months, or how do i make the pattern smaller? Thank you.
I just had the printouts of your bucket hat patterns done earlier today? And when you were pinning the pieces together? To make sure that the pieces are FULLY SQUARE. ALL three pieces were folded in half and a "pizza piece" notch was cut out?! As for the seam allowance? It was at 3/8". 1 cm approximately.
I have not made one yet. Just watched the (excellent) video. I am going to use fusible vinyl to waterproof one and see how it turns out. I doubt that it can be washed very many times????? It would be nice to keep the hat/hair dry if running through the rain. :-) I am debating if I will need to use interfacing also. Maybe not. Let me know how yours works.
I was disappointed with the pattern. It’s plenty big for an adult but the 3” band is reduced to 2” after taking off the seam allowance. That’s a very short hat. Then, the brim is overlarge and floppy. I would not call this a bucket hat. It’s a sun hat. Instructions were good.
