Flower Feather Fascinators

Feathers and fabric flowers fascinate me. Especially on a hat or in hair. I adore them on others and want to wear one of my own. I wouldn't buy such a thing, so I made a few of my own in my crafty space. I am hoping to get good at making them to sell and give as gifts.


For the blue one, I collected some feathers outside and used some from the store. One is a tail feather from a Steller's jay found in the mountains of California. The feathers are hot glued to felt. Black lace edging is cut to stick out sides. Fabric flowers are cut from my Moma's quilt scraps and some old jeans. Sewn with machine in a random and mistake ridden manner of course. Well, I tried this is what I get, and I like it. This one goes on my hat now.
