Miss Amy Lane

Miss Amy Lane ‘There is no more blessed antidote for gloom than a hat…’
Margaret Story, Individuality and Clothes – 1930

Gaining inspiration from her collection of vintage patterns, sewing manuals and Australian Home Journals dating from 1916 through to the 1960’s, Miss Amy Lane creates many a remedy for gloom. Using a mixture of recycled, vintage and new materials she creates blocked mini felt hats, straw hats, covered cocktail numbers, stitched hats….lovely individual head pieces for all occasions.

It's been a month since I posted anything - good sign that I've been busy! This lovely lady had her debut on Sunday, she was a pleasure to make, and the feedback is she was a fabulous dress to wear - I love positive feedback!

Good evening - just wrapping up my last assignment piece - a little different this time. We had to create a hat using non millinery material. So here's my Fireworks hat, made with wire, alloy mesh and LEDs. One for night...
