How do I sew this?
 
1 Attachment(s)
I'm sure I'm going to feel very dumb when I get the answer, but I can't figure out how to sew the bottom of this pin keep on to the top! You first sew 2 halves of the hat together, and then you sew the oval bottom on, flip it inside out, and fill it. Can anyone help, or direct me to a video tutorial? I'd be very grateful, thank you.

The round on the bottom has to be sewn by hand. Does that help?

I would probably make an inside hat out of cotton stuff that and either hand stitch or glue the outer two pieces together over the inside piece ,,,, but I did find the pattern for sale

You could machine stitch it by turning the hat inside out and sewing the bottom on leaving an opening to turn it, but I'm thinking you might mess it up when you are turning it. I'd sew it on by hand.

If I was making it, I would cut the bottom piece with a seam down the center, adding seam allowances. Stitch the bottom pieces together leaving a turning gap in the center. Then sew the bottom to the hat, right sides together, by machine. Turn right side out, stuff, and ladder stitch the opening closed. The seam won't show and you would just have a small gap to sew closed rather than sewing on the entire piece by hand. Clear as mud??

SueZQ, that's how I would do it too. Cute pin cushion.
