That’s right. I’m cutting out large circles again. Except this time, I only need to do one set. And I’m just covered in shame that I haven’t already finished it. I blame Wisconsin. When in doubt, blame Wisconsin.
Anyway, lots of sewing going on all up in heres. The finished products (yes, more than one as I’ve been doing more things than circles) will like be posted as their intended recipients actually receive things.
And that’s what I’m doing right now.
Pika-chuuuuuuuuuu!!
Here it is! This was the project I was supposed to finish last week, but couldn’t get it together to do so.
This was a prize for one of the jr. high girls who managed to finish reading the Gospels in the New Testament. I was originally going to make her a monster hat with teeth, as I am fond of those because it looks like the hat is eating your head. But, she’s a big fan of Pikachu. She’s probably Pikachu’s biggest fan. It was more fitting to make her a Pikachu hat.
The Pikachu hat is a flannel-lined fleece hat. The eyes, cheeks, and nose are appliqué. The mouth is embroidered. I did most of it free hand, so I don’t have a pattern for it. If you’re interested, I can give you the dimensions I used…but that’s about all I have. The hat is sized for an average teenage girl’s head according to this.
You can’t quite see it in the photo, but I managed to get the nose right where the hat comes to a point so the face looks a lot like how Pikachu is drawn. I was quite proud of myself.

Maybe one of my next projects should be making a hat stand so I don’t have to prop up hats on my water bottle.
Random moosages as I see fit.
