I like the hat, but those fantasy flowers are just amazing. I especially like how the rose is edged with a different color. That really makes it pop in the middle of the bouquet. The designer recommends using her seamless method of joining and provides an embedded link in her Notes section. This is excellent advice, along with all her other helpful tips.

This spring blossom cloche is really fashionable. I would change only one thing, the color of the hat itself. I think making the base in a bright spring color would make it all the better. The flowers are just perfect.

I think you're right about the color. A lighter green would be a much better background.

I am learning to like the cloche. I keep seeing patterns for them and I have yet to make one. I like this one because of the beautiful flowers that the designer attached. It looks like it could have easily been found on the self of a second hand vintage store.

My Scots grandmother emigrated to New York on her 19th birthday, and I have many photos of her wearing a cloche. They were the height of flapper fashion!
