Thanks a lot

No, it is dark brown, nearly the same colour as the Fed. Deluxe

My daughter had me watch "V for Vendetta" the other night. Good flick!

Are you planning a "V"-style hat at any point?

Oh, awesome! Can't wait to see how it turns out! Nice body by the way, is that a rabbit? Where'd you get it from?

It´s pure fure felt. I ordered it over a friend of mine, a hatter. I gave him the details and he spoke with someone in the production and finally I got my stump $\:D/$

I have a cold today, so I found the time to finish my project.
Although there are many things to improve, I´m proud to present you my first hand made hat. I hope you like "him"

That is sweet!!! I'll tell you though it looks like too much work for me. By the time I get home from work in Long Term Care, I barely have time to take care of my dogs and get a bit of time all for myself just to put my feet up. I'll have to be content with purchasing my fedoras from you talented gentlemen!!!
