Boonie as promised

Small touches left to finish the 2 boonies for our Viet Cong impression, but here are some photos of the process.

5 pie shaped sections sewn together and a section of "quarters" sewn below them

circular brim sewn in a spiral with canvas between for stiffening 

brim sewn on to "quarters", that center circle cut out leaving the right amount of seam allowance


finish edges of brim with bias fabric trim and the inside seam where brim meets quarters
Ok, back to the 19th century!
