Hi Dianne, love the idea of recycling a beautiful dress. Admittedly, I have a hard time cutting into it!! Love to see a post of the beaded hat.

<p>Most of the hats I make are Sinamay, and I do love it. But I also love covering buckram, you can use so many different fabrics from silk to Denim and it is wearable year round.</p> <p>I recently had a friends give me an outgrown beaded dress with coat, it is lovely, so far I have only used sleeves to make a hat but it is so stunning, SO glad I can use Buckram!</p>

<p>I also love covering buckram with fabric, particularly silk dupion. I have an unhealthy obsession with vintage veiling - I just cant stop myself from purchasing it when I come across a good stash...</p> <p><a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2968501339?profile=original" target="_self"><img class="align-full" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2968501339?profile=original" width="480"/></a></p>

<p>I have a love of fabric, so I really like covered hats with a buckram base. </p> <p>But, when winter comes, I find myself itching to get back to the softness and flexibility of felt.  It just feels so lovely in your hands and moulds so beautifully ... and .. ahhh. </p>

<p>What you have might be military buckram (military canvas).  It's made from jute and is incredibly strong.  You can make blocks from It!</p>

<p>My favorite foundation material is Buckram, it has no boundaries and you can use other things beside a hat block to make a form.  Your sewing skills will come in handy when using buckram.  It comes in both black and white.  You also can make millinery decorations using it, those who make their own shoes can use buckram for the "Counters." Your imagination with using buckram is limitless.</p>

I love buckram. I used it for the first time to make a pillbox hat yesterday. Fabulous! I will be ordering more. It's very strong and very easy to shape too!

<p>Great to know what it is!</p> <p>I'd love to order more but currently you ship only to Australia. Any possibility I could get it shipped to South Korea? I'm desperate for supplies!</p> <p>For example, if anyone want to do a supply trade: Silk and hardware is priced reasonably in Korea whilst I can't get foundation materials. </p>
