I made a small bucket hat for my cat Percy and he looks adorable!❤ This tutorial was super easy to follow. I definitely will make more human-sized bucket hats in the future!
I made my first ever hat this evening following your tutorial. I'm super happy with it. I need to make a few more to practice and I'm going to make the width of the side a little shorter (just so it fits me better) (I'm also going to make future ones with interfacing as I didn't have any to use for this one) I'm a very new machine sewer and your tutorial was very easy to follow. Thank you from a very happy man in Cornwall, UK.
Loved this detailed and simple tutorial. Thank you. I decided to leave the opening for turning, on the brim of the hat since we were top stitching it after.
I’ve always wanted a bucket hat and looking for a pattern. Making my own will be so much better! Thank you providing such clear instructions. Excellent job❤
Thank you sooooo much for this . I HAVE BEEN searching for tutorials and didn't find one how to draft one. All of them were tutorials with a ready made pattern and I had gave up on this. You have just won my heart. Glad I found you here and learned a lot from you . Still a beginner ☺. Thanks again.
I’m so glad I found your channel. You’ve reignited my love of sewing. You always choose such great things to make, and are very good at explaining everything👍 So far I’ve made the circle top, which turned out really well & I look forward to trying this! You’re brilliant🙂💕
I made a bucket hat just like yours, with recycled jeans, 4 years ago, never wore it. But now I have fabric prints that is perfect for this hat and I know will sell big time! $$$ So thank you for this video, cutting mine out now. Fabulous job❣️🌹
Impeccable precision. I looked at soooooo many bucket hat patterns in the last few months. I’m going to follow yours on my next make. The first one I made it was entirely too small. I did not account for my poofy hair. Then I made one that I was happy with but it looked more like a floppy hat rather than a bucket hat. I started to more with the top and the side but I have been stalling on the brand because I don’t want it to look like a floppy hat. Sooooo we will see how my next one goes using your pattern and then maybe I will be confident to finish the two that are incomplete
Aaaa, it seems like the brim over there is a bit too wide if it gives you the floppy hat. Make this one from your scrap fabric so that way you know for sure! Yeah, my hair is actually very wavy but I straighten it for the videos because otherwise it is a frizzy mess, so when I go gardening in the morning and my hair is poofy that extra that I added for the hair - oh it helps :)
That’s amazing! Each detail is explained so perfectly 👍All these days I was searching for a perfect tutorial for hat and today I found one ❤️Thanks and keep up the good work
Many years ago I learned that when you have a rounded pattern piece machine baste around the curved edge. When you are pinning your pattern pieces together pull the bobbin thread lightly as you go to ease the curve in and then sew your piece to gether.
I've been looking fo a tutorial on how to sew one!!! Thanks for the tutorial! (Not even finnishing watching it yet but i can already tell that i can sew a bucket hat after this) HEHEHE
Hello hello! Let me ask you, didn't you ask me a couple of times in the comments to make some bows? Maybe I am thinking of another person, but I think it was you :) oh, and I have made some bows for my farmers market stand.
You're just the cutest. I'm going to make a few of these for summer. I've shaved my head to get rid of the dyed red and need a nice cover for my growing out stage.
I bought a bucket hat with a wide brim. I adore it! Mine has wire at the edge of the brim inside the two pieces. It allows the hat to be turned up half an inch and it keeps its shape.
That's awesome! Welcome to the channel, I hope you stay for a while :) sewing is so much fun and I had so many people make this bucket hat in so many ways! The creativity is endless :)
Thank you so much for the clear and easy to follow instructions. I am off to start drafting my hat now. Co-ordinating lining would be a good way to use left over fabric. Love your channel!
This was my last video too! I do it as a project with my sewing club at school. We just use a pattern from the internet but this would really help as when you cater to 11 to 15 year olds there is a big size difference. Ours are reversible and made from recycled jeans!
Oh, and happy belated Birthday! Wasn't it your Birthday last week, or two weeks back? I remember your comment! All the best wishes! Yes, size difference can be big AND yes, old jeans are perfect for this, and look trendy and go well with everything!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity it was last Saturday it's so sweet you remembered ☺️ They get to add embroidery to the denim too. Honestly I bring out the hoops and they go wild. Then silent for the whole hour as they concentrate. I think maybe its because they hate rethreading the machines 😅
ha ha, kids.... the way they think is funny sometimes. I did remember your comment, I just got swamped with tons of comments and haven't had a chance to write you back! Happy Birthday one more time, let this year be extra creative for YOU!
I’m wondering, I think I’ll press it before putting the layers together, and press the interfaced seam up and the lining seam down, or however you like to get it to lie smoothest, and so the seams will nest together, to reduce bulk when assembled. And to settle those seam allowances inside before you get too close to the seam with the top stitching. ie get it all sorted and flat inside before the topstitching.
I’ve just taken up an outdoor sport and need a hat, but not a big brim. This will be perfect. Also I’ve an enormous head, can never get hats to fit, and you’ve taught me what to do to get round that problem too! Thank you so much. Did you say how much fabric?
Thanks for your great video, I enjoyed learning about how to draft a pattern for myself. Can I please confirm your seam allowance? Was it ⅜ inch/ 1 cm? Many thanks!
I think I'll just take a cheap hat I've already got and cut it apart and draw around each piece, adding a little to each side for hemming.. Then stitch together! I like making things simple, me! 😁
I made a small bucket hat for my cat Percy and he looks adorable!❤ This tutorial was super easy to follow. I definitely will make more human-sized bucket hats in the future!

Claire has sent me over to see your bucket hat video. Great pattern Alisha.
Thank you for this.. my daughter has been going mad for a bucket hat so now I can make her one 😊
Attempting this for my very active 5 year old son who is obsessed with hats! I'm not a great seamstress so fingers crossed for me
You could always sew a basting stitch and gather slightly before putting on the top of the hat. Nice video!
Thank you for that tip because I could not even distribute for some reason 😬😬😬
So so cute alisa. My daughter is so i to bucket hat now. Perfect time for bday gift :). Thank you!’
Awesome! it will make it so much more special!

Can you spot my CAT helper? lol :) she is always sitting by my sewing machine.
My cat likes to "help" cut things out!
I love your cute helper. Always makes me smile.
@@krisniznik3953 oh, mine is the same - as soon as I put fabric down, she rolls all over it and plays with scissors!
Try having 1 that wants to be close to you even when you serge! Tom-Tom has to go into the cat room while I serge. He’s frightening!
@@bunnydannels7591 But he LOVES you!
Ohh tnxx alot ❤❤❤❤❤ u save my life
Thanks a lot have been looking for this pattern
What a beautiful kitty cat
Loved this video, will definitely be making one
Thank you! This is so helpful!
Will definitely try this one 😃

Fit perfectly for large heads due to my hair and stylish.
I LOVE your hat! Great tutorial! I enjoyed our collab! ❤️
Me too! Thank you for doing this with me!
Love it! Thanks🙌🏻
Thank you for demo!
Love this! Definitely going to make one, thank you for the inspiration
I’ve just taken up an outdoor sport and need a hat, but not a big brim. This will be perfect. Also I’ve an enormous head, can never get hats to fit, and you’ve taught me what to do to get round that problem too! Thank you so much.
Did you say how much fabric?
The listening devices must have told you I was looking for this pattern. 😉😂👏🏽💣💯 Vicki
He he, Vicki you're so funny! I am just finishing up the Instruction Sheets for the Members, will post them in about 15 minutes! :)
Well explainined
So helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice. Love it.
Thanks for your great video, I enjoyed learning about how to draft a pattern for myself. Can I please confirm your seam allowance? Was it ⅜ inch/ 1 cm? Many thanks!
1/2 an inch.
Google said 9,53cm
Nice love it👏👍
thank you very much!!
Sent over by Claire
Cool
thanks 👍👍👍
Welcome 👍
If you put the top of the hat down, with the side piece uppermost, the feed dogs with ease the outer curve in some, as you go along.
Wow
I think I'll just take a cheap hat I've already got and cut it apart and draw around each piece, adding a little to each side for hemming.. Then stitch together! I like making things simple, me! 😁
You do you!
Hi just wondering if you could make a bucket hat with a hole at the back for a ponytail to put through, or how to make a hole?
Make a bucket, cut a hole in the back where you want it and finish it with bias tape :)
I had a little trouble when you said "5/8 of an inch"... i had to study US measurements system again... In my country we use "cm", "mm"...
Can you use an overlocker/Serger? other thank the finish on the brim?.. thank you..🤗
Si le quedo medio culenge pero esta cool
