Thank you I will follow your method as it’s less fiddly and much easier. I have my sinamay covered in a pvu glue mix. I have really enjoyed watching your wee videos on KZfaq. Do you have more or anywhere else I can watch more?

Thank you so much for posting! I want to start millinery and your videos make me feel like I can do it. It's very scary for me because where I live you can't find literally anything and I have to import everything. * ok I can find pins and scissors but that's about it* All jokes aside I really appreciate what you are doing! You can't imagine how much hope and determination you can harvest in newbies like me ❤😂!

Thank you so much Sara. I have blocked two. One on a wooden block and one on a polystyrene. Just waiting on them drying. Will they not collapse if no wire inside to strengthen?

@SHMillinery 8 ай бұрын

Because I use an internal metal headband, I don't need to wire. If you are doing a different method you may need to add a wire frame. It depends on how stiffened your fabric is

Hi that was very informative. Any tips on how to cover it in velvet fabric?

@SHMillinery 8 ай бұрын

Cut your velvet on the bias, the stretch will help with a smooth covering

Lovely work. May I ask where to get the halo block from.

@SHMillinery Жыл бұрын

The halo block is available from highlandhatblocks.com, I am using block HHB309

Hi Sara I have finished blocking and adding the metal band and I’m about to cover in the stretch velvet fabric. Do I sew it or glue it? It’s a bit fiddly so I was wondering what you would suggest. Thanx again for all your tips x

@SHMillinery 8 ай бұрын

I would sew to the underside, as once glued it is difficult to adjust, also the glue may leech through the fabric

Also I do show a sewn one here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q9qhgcph0afJin0.htmlsi=GcNYu_QlsiBNBB4w
