Fur Pillbox & Davey Crockett Hat Supplies
● Prime pelts (to ensure softness and longevity, professional garment/soft tanned pelts are recommended)
● Pelt size and quantity needed will vary based on species, pelt size, and hat size
● General Guidelines for Pillbox and Davey Crockett Hats
● If you’re making the Davey Crockett hat, make sure the face of the pelt isn’t damaged
● Beaver 1 Medium pelt
● Coyote 1 Large pelt
● Otter 1 XL pelt
● Raccoon 1 XL pelt
● Fox: 1 XL pelt
● Muskrat: 2 XXXL + 1 Large pelt
● Skunk: 3 Large pelts
● Lining fabric: polyester fleece is recommended, ½ yard will line 2 or more hats depending on size
● Non-stretch fabric to sew test hat, upholstery fabric works well ½ yard will make 2 or more trial hats depending on size
● “Hudson 43 Velvet Multi Purpose Home Decor Fabric 55″ wide” is my favorite fabric for testing size, but any heavy weight non-stretch fabric will work
● Thread
● Hand sewing thread
● Polyester or nylon upholstery weight thread, such as Coats & Clark Upholstery Thread, bonded nylon size #46 or similar
● Fur machine sewing thread
● Whatever works well in your machine. I like New Bedford Glazed Cotton, size 80 for beaver and otter, size 100 for coyote, and size 120 for fox . All-purpose polyester thread may also be used in the fur sewing machine as a lower-cost alternative.
● Home sewing machine thread
● All-purpose polyester thread – if using a home sewing machine to sew the lining.
● Needles
● Hand sewing
● Glovers needle size 003 or similar
● Optional: Sharps hand sewing needle size 007 or similar to sew lining
