Hi I am Patti Berg creator of fine millinery. I have studied vintage and classic hat making techniques and have drawn from them my own unique process. I use many different fabrics including knits, cottons, wool, velvet, fleece and linen to name a few. I may use applique, sculpting, top stitching, shirring, pleating, trapunto, eyelet, weaving, crocheting, hand stitching, and anything else that gets the job done.
I have designed all of my own patterns of which there are many various shapes and eras represented.
I shy away from trendy styles and create hats that will not go out of style. My designs can appeal to a wide age range because they are classic.
Some of my designs are explicitly winter with warmth, comfort and good looks. Some are for keeping the sun off face and neck and some are just for fun.
My hats are comfortable and fit well. The hats are heirloom quality. They will hold up to be passed down as is traditional with hats.
