Summer Hat

I found this pattern yesterday while on the internet.  I thought it was pretty much adorable and thought I would give it a try.  First of all, it says to get 1/8 of a yard of fabric.  It was enough to do the lining, but you had to get more to make the ribbon.  It was not enough for the outside.  I was like 8 inches short, so instead of going back to Joanns for the third time I had to get a tad bit creative.  This made the whole process take a little longer.  If any one makes this hat I highly suggest you buy a little bit more fabric.  This is the result

Oh I love it!  It does look a little funny when Addi is wearing it though.  It said it would fit up to 2T but it looks a bit small.

It is also reversible!

I made this hat because Cotton Days is coming up and we will be at the parade and the park, in the sun all day.  Hopefully she wears it.  I have a sad feeling that instead of on her head it will be in her hands most of the time.

In other news, Addi is crawling!  During our little photo shoot she decided she wanted the video camera and crawled right over to it.  She is still a little clumsy but it is so fun to watch.  She will be 9 months old in two days and I still can not believe how big she is getting.
