The very first in DVD format on the internet, an in depth instructional dvd on the art of hatmaking. An opportunity to learn all the secret techniques of hatmaking from a designer of 25 years. When I began my hat making adventure many years ago, I yearned for someone who could teach me the techniques and secrets of the wonderful milliners in the distant past. Having seen wonderful examples of their expert couture skills in museums and antique shops and shows, I was smitten. I proceeded to learn their skills on the good ole "trial and error" method. Your learning curve will not be nearly so extensive. My goal on these DVDs is to be the mentor for you, that I could not find and that I wanted so dearly in the past. To show you the way to become expert in your hat making skills. And then the sky is the limit. View my movie below, for sample of DVD instructions.
