Volleyball Hat

Tiny bit of sewing for child. He found a hat he could wear while waiting around at the volleyball tournament this weekend.

He wanted a black band about 1 1/4" wide that tucked in at one side.

Looking through my lack of black fabrics, I decided on a bias strip of OSU orange fabric, then I spied this Guatemalan belt of multi-colors.

Belt frays so I blanket stitched the ends to keep fraying at a minimum and fray-checked that stitching.

Then I tacked it down in a couple of spots on the hat.

Hat found in house.

Guatemalan belt free at a garage sale.

Steamed to make belt tighter.
