Small Hats Big Look

A lovely letter from the Stockport Hat Works Museum arrived today…

‘We’ve been looking at the hats whilst we have been packing them up and thought that your hat would be a great addition to our collection. Hat Works Museum would like to accession a small selection of the entries into the museum collection to represent the talent and imagination that is evident in the design of modern hats today.’

Awer.

I entered gallus gallus in the Decade Parade competition last March as somewhat of a litmus test promising myself if it got anywhere I would keep at millinery. So, it did not win but was selected to show in the 6-month exhibition and that was good enough for me!

Maybe one day my great, great, great grandchildren will make the pilgrimage to see the first hat great, great, great nana ever made...
