Hats are definitely the in thing at the moment. Pop stars and Princesses have helped to fuel the current headwear trend which is truly sweeping the world. HATalk e-magazine is a downloadable monthly publication for those who make hats and those who would like to find out more about the fabulous art of millinery. Featuring inspirational hats from around the world, the latest millinery news and step by step hat and fascinator making techniques, HATalk is an invaluable resource for anyone who loves hats.

If you’d like to know more about HATalk, we’d love to give you a free sample issue. Have a look through our Back Issue Library to pick out which issue you’d like and then email us at [email protected] with the Issue number. There are some great projects to try, even if you’re not into hats yet. For instance, Issue 28 teaches you how make a gorgeous ribbon rosette, Issue 41 shows how to make a giant origami rose out of sinamay and Issue 66 explains how to create an ombre effect with Procion dyes.

Making hats and fascinators is a great way to express your creativity, either as a hobby or as a business, and can be done at home with very little equipment. For more information, please visit www.hatalk.com.
