Chalk or something temporary to mark the fabric
Pins

Iron

Seam allowances are ½” unless directed otherwise.

If you use blue/white striped denim you will have a TRAIN CONDUCTOR'S HAT.

I made them for our sons many, many years ago. Now with all the Thomas and other train toys kids would love them. I'd use red or pink and white striped denim for a girl's train hat.

Comment by Scotch38 on June 9, 2010 at 9:24am: Merci !! enfin de quoi coudre pour les petits gars !!

Comment by Kaitlin Scutari on June 9, 2010 at 8:50am: Ooh my god! This is the cutest thing ever! I am so excited about this tutorial because my 2 year old son used to wear these types of hats but has grown out of all the baby sizes and my brothers (who are 10 and 12) are wicked into these hats. I'll just have to adjust the size a little to fit their big heads. haha.
