Dawn,
What kind of hatmaking are you interested in? Do you want to do buckram,
felt or straw? Are you looking at flat pattern construction in buckram or
pulling on blocks?
I have been a professional milliner for 16 years working for Disney and for
10 years at The Pageant of the Masters
From the Neck Up is the obvious one but the millinery school I took
a course from has some books for sale that are worth checking out:
http://www.how2hats.com/booklist.html I found it very easy but made
much more sense once someone showed me how to do things rather than
trying to read about

Another that I recommend, unfortunately out of print (but our local library
has it):
Classic Millinery Techniques by Ann Albrizio
It has more

Those of you who make hats...
Would you suggest a good book or two? I'm totally intimidated by the
process but eager to try it if I can get good instructions. I've seen
one book that makes it look easy, but then if it was easy everyone would
be doing it, so I have to wonder.
