3.0 out of 5 stars Great Photos, January 21, 2000

By	Diane Rozario (Iowa) - See all my reviews

This book has wonderful photos of all kinds of hats. However, it only contains instructions for making a few of them. I tried to make the Water Lily hat but found the instructions confusing and could not figure it out. However, if you are browing for hat embellishment suggestions or just want to look at nice photos to get ideas for hats the book is great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Basic Hat tips and Ideas, January 31, 2002

By	purple haze "phaze" (Idaho United States) - See all my reviews

I beg to differ with others comments that this book wasn't as helpful as they would have liked. It gave great examples of what was possible in design. I found it more interesting than the 'from the neck up book' which was too technical. First off, the photography is great. The examples of hats are awesome. I loved the project for the appliqued garland straw brim. Overall,it's a great book to have if you're interested in millinery.

3.0 out of 5 stars A "FUN" book for people with light interest in hats, November 21, 1999

By	Phyllis Goodwin (San Francisco Bay Area) - See all my reviews

I think this is a good "recreational" book to pick up in a craft of fabric store when you have a light interest in hats. I did not find it went in depth enough for people who really want to DO hats. I need more info on EMBELLISHING and STYLIZING hats. This was just too basic and broad to give me much actionable information.

4.0 out of 5 stars Delightful and Lovely Book to have fun playing with hats
I agree with other reviewers that this book is not for the serious miliner. However, if you want to dabble a bit, or have a fun hat that you'd like to spruce up - this will do the... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars very good book for people that design hats for a hobby!
I have this book and I like it. You can get some nice ideas from it, but if you make hats for a living...it's not for you. It is really for someone who plays at hat making.

Published on January 22, 2006 by FRANCES SHOFFNER

3.0 out of 5 stars A fairly good resource for a beginning milliner.
This book is mainly about re-doing hats, although there is a section on making your own felt. It contains chapters on men's and children's hats as well as women's.
