JPDesigns grey example

Post by JPdesign »

I have been making several grey hats lately and thought I would post a couple of pics. This is a beaver in granite grey with a last crusade crease.

Enjoy

I wonder what kind of ribbon would make a good contrast to the steel grey (the darker one).

Any other pics of hat colors?

"Steel" Ribbon

Post by YARVTON »

I think Navy, Charcoal, and of course Black would make excellent choices. I'd order with a 2-inch ribbon -- personal preference and true-to-period.

I would like to see a darker grey, like that steel grey with the bound edge.

I wonder if Jimmy has the felt on hand to take pics of as color samples.

I own a JPD gray Rabbit that is outstanding in looks and quality. You can see pics of it on another thread.
