Hello Students from My Alma Mater! Welcome to New York City!
What a great opportunity to share some of my stories with up and coming grads from MU!

This Spring visit we were also having a sample sale. A great time for the students and faculty to shop!

Shopping followed by a studio tour given by Jennifer, starting with the beautiful collection of hat blocks.

Including a demo on how to use a five piece wooden hat block.

Five piece blocks are cut into 5 puzzle like pieces.  You remove the center piece first, and the the four other pieces collapse inward, allowing you to remove the block from your finished hat without damaging your shape!  Absolutely brilliant!
