This video shows how you can use household items to make a saucer hat without the need for an expensive block.

[@arinavandam9359]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I'm a beginner and love millenary ,but don't have all the tools you need.!!
Most millenary tutorial's use expensive tools to make it happen.!!
And for a beginner you really don't know what you need..!
Love and kisses from the Netherlands.

[@marcwheeler4406]

What is pva solution? And does conture, always mean its hand sewn? I always heard people say oh that's conture, does that mean its hand sewn ....like dress and clothes also, just interested in learning the word useage..

[@SHMillinery]

Hi Polyvinyl acetate (PVA, PVAc, poly(ethenyl ethanoate): best known as wood glue, white glue, carpenter's glue, school glue, Elmer's glue in the US. Couture means high end , expensive, which in turn means very high quality fabrics and finish (e.g.hand sewn) hope this helps

[@jocross6409]

Thank you so much for your tutorials! I have always loved hats and by watching your videos I have gained the confidence to start making a few. Please keep them coming! Also where can you buy the wonder clips? Jo x

[@SHMillinery]

Hi Jo, thank you so much, and I am so pleased you feel inspired to take up millinery! I buy my clips online, places like amazon etc, but if you search quilt clips, a lot come up. I hope this helps

[@Foxiepawstotti]

Love it!

[@cperilli1]

[@phoebengozi2369]

This is lovely. Thanks ma'am

[@floxysi7435]

What is the name of d material u put in between the fabric. I mean the lining

[@SHMillinery]

It is millinery buckram 😁

[@mandybreen4395]

Hello just started watching your videos and am obsessed they are so good. The clips you used to hold the sinamay, where did you get them?

[@SHMillinery]

They are called wonder clips or quilters clips 😀

[@floxysi7435]

Thanks for the idea

[@sarahnazar3479]

Hi. Silly question: Can I use any type of headband?

[@SHMillinery]

Hi, no question is silly 😀 as long as the band is sturdy enough and wide enough to take the weight of what ever hat you are making, then it is up to you what you use.

[@ayoshote4476]

Beautiful

[@SHMillinery]

Thank you

[@alicjawanczyk1228]

hello! thank you for the video - it is very helpful. Can you explain what is this tape around? how do you write it? Thank you :)

[@SHMillinery]

Hi, it is millinery petersham 😀

[@patiencejohn-kalipa4844]

Please can sinnamay be used in place of bulkram? Thank you.

[@SHMillinery]

@@patiencejohn-kalipa4844 you would have to use extra stiffener on the fabric. The sinamay doesn't have as much starch in it

[@odiondaniel2690]

Please what is the name of the gum

[@SHMillinery]

PVA

[@MaliBrown88]

Fabulous!

[@marcwheeler4406]

Very pretty I would be proud to wear that I love the colors...mikelle newyork mom😷✌🕵️‍♀️🧵 trying to distress by watching your videos....also I wrote prior questions just forgot to sign my name pardon....

[@catherineannan3688]

Thanks mum

[@princessruth9831]

Pls did u add stiffener? Am wondering how ur fabric came out hard

[@SHMillinery]

The stiffened buckram made it solid. No other stifner used.

[@rebeccannennaonah2691]
