PLEASE NOTE THIS CLASS HAS A $30 MATERIAL FEE DUE TO THE INSTRUCTOR ON THE FIRST DAY OF CLASS.
Join Milliner Leslie Robinson for this introductory hatmaking class. You will learn the fundamentals of blocking, shaping and trimming a wool felt hat. Returning students welcome - we'll cover more advanced techniques.
In this class some hand-sewing experience is helpful, though not required.
Leslie Robinson is a Maker that hails from rural Illinois. She has spent the past twenty-something years soaking up the vibrant feast that is Los Angeles. Always interested in fashion and design, she spontaneously registered for a class from a local hat maker. One session convinced her that this was her passion and calling. She has since become a full time Milliner, having sewn for several seasons for Louise Green Millinery. She is currently involved in a Repair and Restoration project for Eastern Costume's large hat repository. Leslie teaches courses on all aspects of Millinery-join her for a class and learn how putting on a hat can change your life!
