I attribute my passion for costuming and what started me down this road, to this project. This was my very first project I did without any assistance. I drafted the pattern myself. It is made from bull's hide that I dyed blue. I made the appliques from small pieces of leather that have the design gilded on them with 24k gold leaf.
I was so honored when the designer asked me to take on this project. It was a great opportunity for me to showcase my skills with leather working. She asked me to alter an existing apron we had with lots of extra pockets and straps for vials. I also made some fake blood and grave-dirt to show what work it had done.
The shape of this hat was inspired by the movie adaptation of the show. We all agreed the hat resembled a basketball, and so that is what it became. I included a wire to the brim so that we could manipulate the shape of the hat to fit whatever need s we may have for it.
