Description

When this gurl hits the thrifts, she sees all sorts of new trucker hats. It didn't occur to me until yesterday that I could do somethin' cute with one.

Instructions

  1. Small truckerhat1

    Find a trucker hat at the thrift store. There are tons of them that are brand new with some sort of advertising on the front.

  2. Small truckerhat2

    I pulled out some fabric I recently found and went to stitchin. I discovered the easiest way to do this is to make a pattern for the center piece of fabric. I accomplished this by folding a piece of paper in half and cutting it in an arch down the longest side. Then I cut it until it became the right size.

  3. Small truckerhat

    I used the pattern to cut out the fabric. I opted to keep the frayed edges of the fabric and hand stitched it to the hat. Then I added a bit of lace and a crocheted flower I made. It's a pretty quick project. You certainly don't have to stitch the fabric to the hat and can use spray adhesive or fabric glue. 10-4 Good Buddy!
