Review of Millinery Design - Hatmaking - blocking with felt and straw, October 01, 2009
I have now completed a couple of classes with Jeanne, and all have been wonderful. She is patient and knowledgeable, and just lovely to learn from. I actually can't wait to sign up for another class.

Review of Millinery Design - Hatmaking - blocking with felt and straw, December 10, 2008
I made a wearable blocked felt hat on the first day !!!!
My intent when I signed up for this class was to develope an intimate understanding of hat making, so when I purchased hats in the future, I would know what I was buying/paying for.
I was thrilled at the end of day one, when I had a wearable felt hat.
Jeanne took her years of experience and created a straight forward hat making class that was easy to understand and the techniques she taught in class where easy to apply. I was pleasantly surprised to find that hat making; though detailed is rather straight forward at the beginner level; and beginners can make pleasant wearable professional looking hats.
I found Jeanne to be personable and helpful as she took the time to show me things as simple as a sewing pick stitch .
I actually feel confident enough to make hats on my own at home.
I plan on taking more of her hat making classes in the future.I highly recommend this class/instructor.
You might want to sign up with a friend or two; as this is a great time to bond!!!I made a wearable blocked felt hat on the first day !!!!
