OK, the time is here. I've been very happy with the handful of hatters I've dealt with in the past, but a chance to support a new craftsman in this field... and a local... at the ground floor. I couldn't resist. So, despite the worried look on my face, I am quite content.

I also had the pleasure of meeting Tim personally. A pleasure of course.
Thank you Tim!

It should be pointed out that, while I chose the felt color, Tim picked the ribbon. He said he found something that worked and I decided to trust the artist.

I recall asking for a 5 1/2" crown before bash, and it measures just under 5" at the front now. The brim measures 2 3/4" and the ribbon is a classic 1 1/2". It doesn't get much better than that.

Whoops! Sorry about that. The felt is Whiskey, and I think Tim called the ribbon somethingerother cinnamon. Tim? The whiskey is interesting. It changes with the light. Sometimes it looks almost like a camel color, other times more like a darkish cream soda color, and everything in between.
