NEW for the League of NH Craftsmen’s Sunapee Fair: Embroidered Felt Hat with Antler Buttons

With just 5 days until the start of the 76th Annual League of New Hampshire Craftsmen’s Fair at Mt. Sunapee, I’ve been embroidering felt hats as fast as I can.

Hand-cut caribou antler button, seed beads and ribbon embroidery on felt.

I love the over-sized caribou antler buttons on this hat (2008 #124)…

I’ll be in Tent 7, Booth 713 for all nine days of the Fair, with as much new work as I can muster!

Hat of the Week: Last Hat of 2007 (#175)

Knitted felt hat #175 of 2007 by felt fiber artist, Carrie Cahill Mulligan of Canaan, New Hampshire.  Ribbon embroidery worked freehand.


(Drumroll, please…) Here it is! The final hat (#175) in my 2007 Collection.

Finished with custom, freehand embroidery last night, and sent in today’s mail, this pink-on-pink beauty is now heading to Christine S. of New York City.

I sure hope this warm felt hat gets to Chris in time for Valentine’s Day. We’ve had some cold, snowy weather here in the Northeast, lately…
