- Sinamay can be blocked on anything! So Lets put this to the test and try it on a banana. I will also go through making patterned sinamay button bases featuring pleats, chevrons and herringbones.

I enjoyed your video and these will be new styles for me, u have introduced to me thank you am watching from SOUTH AFRICA and I make hats .
I really enjoy your videos even though I don’t make hats.
You and Mr Hat are great dancers. Your outfit is perfect.
Belated happy birthday to Mr Hat. 🎂
I love that you blocked right onto the banana. A matching banana bag would be fun. Can’t have too many fruit accessories!
OMG I love this idea! Never too many fruit accessories! 🍌
I may have incorporated strawberries and grapes into my upcoming spring 2024 collection - I'll be videoing the process of making this entire lot of new hats 🍓🍇
Your banana hat will suit well in Royal Ascot. This week is Royal Ascot.
Wonderful creation.
Wow, I am just enjoying you making this beautiful piece. Can't wait to do mine. Thanks so much. Regards from Ghana
Have you tried a quilter's mini iron or quilter's appliqué iron? The mini iron has steam. Love your tutorial!! Love from Canada ❤
I think this may be one of my favorites of your hat designs! I love quirky accessories & life is too short to wear a boring hat!
So fun! What a great way to fabricate shapes that are lightweight and keep their shape 🤩 so many potential applications
Thank you for sharing your learning curve and creative process. The banana is totally delicious and I can't wait to see more if your whimsical creations. ❤🍌🍌🍌🍌
Thank you.
Love all of your button bases Ilona, as well as the banana. A great hat for Royal Ascot! 💛🧡🍌
What a fun video!!! Loved it ❤ thank you x
a curved sewing needle would seem to be of good help when wiring, and sewing shapes closed.
Hm
A very small needle nose craft plier would be very useful for things like getting that needle out of the hat. If you have any beading craft shops or departments in your area I’m sure you could find it there.

🎉YES PLEASE
Haha gorgeous!!!

May i suggest a hand held garment steamer. It releases steam but without the dangerous hot metal surface. They are easily available and not expensive
Oh wow. I actually purchased this but cannot use it yet. Can you help me please on how to go about using it?? Thank you in anticipation
Love this. 😍😍😍😍Could you provide instruction on how to do the wire stitch from the inside? 😃 I'm not the best at hand stitching!😊
Hello! Have a look at this video: czcams.com/video/MQ8ZNp-CXAs/video.html
Nice
Really enjoy your videos. May I ask if you use stiffener with the sinamay materials when blocking?
Hi Ilona may i ask i wanna make a cloche hat block but don't know if its crown shape is round or oval, could you help? Thank you for your videos!
Hello! Thank you for your question! Always oval. Every fitted hat should have an oval crown. Round crowns are only suitable for perching hats such as pillboxes.
Sadly hats are out of fashion in my opinion alright for weddings I still enjoy your videos 🌙🌙🌙
What country are you in? Hats are never out of fashion where I live.
