Charming! Tres elegant!
I'll look forward to the whole story (& dress), after the gifting.

Hi,
Thank you for all your help and advice on my first straw hat. I'm
still hoping to surprise someone with the dressed doll, so I won't
post the whole outfit until the project is finished, but I'm too
excited about finishing the hat not to show it to you.

Of course there's lots I have learned in making this hat and the
next one will be better. I"m trying to work up the courage to try to
reduce the fray-check stain on the bow, I wish I had hidden my
stitches in the lining. Thing I'm still having the most trouble with
is exaggerating details either because I can't make them small
enough or because I want them to be apparent. The topline of the hat
should have been straighter, the brim is too big, etc. But I'm still
pleased with it for a first try!
