That's a great pic Joao. The blue sky against the brown of your hat and the green of the tree works great.Yesterday this Stagecoach

Thank you.That's a great pic Joao. The blue sky against the brown of your hat and the green of the tree works great.
That hat has been getting A LOT of head time. Looks better every time!!
A'n'A original today, "Statler" beaver...
Thanks, Michael. The felt is navy and ribbon color is a muted "plum" brown. I was originally going to use a plum colored ribbon with a deeper red/purple color. However, I already have a Dobbs Fifteen homburg with a deep red plum ribbon, so I didn't want a close copy. The Statler ribbon turned out great, because its contrast with the blue felt was truer to what I had envisioned it to be, amplifying (no pun intended ) the plum coloring rather than brown, but not so red that it matched my Dobbs. It's my Grail hat for sure!
PS - The Statler and Dobbs will probably be a good future comparison in the Side by Side thread. Hmm...
