Now that the sewing machine is up and running, I decided to tackle a relatively simple project. I have always wanted a beret so I decided to make one. I bought 1/2 yard of black acryli-felt from Joannes,(they had no wool ), and set to work.

I botched my first attempt badly. After reformulating my plan, I decided to make the crown a bit wider and change the order of assembly from what the online instructions said. Heres the result.



It came out a bit too big for me, but overall I think it turned out well.

I look like a dork in it


I was going to give it up for adoption on the board but my girlfriend showed up and decided she wanted it. Sorry guys. It looks much better on her than it does on me.
