A Dragonfly Gracing a Burgundy Hat

This is a hat I made last winter.  I needle felted the dragonfly that is alight on it.  I enjoyed making the dragonfly and thought about doing more bugs - dragonflies, butterflies, grasshoppers.  But it was time consuming so I don't know when I'll do another.

The flowers are made from curly locks (from a sheep with very curly wool!) that I hand dyed.  In the center of the flowers are fresh water (cultured) pearls.
