Well, for those of you who guessed "Red Hat Society", yes! You are correct!
It's not that I'm into that. I've haven't quite reached the right age yet, but I thought it would be a really fun theme to do and so far it is!
I did the little hat with red velveteen using the freezer paper applique technique. For instructions, click here.
I removed the freezer paper from the back by cutting a small slit in the foundation fabric and the background fabric.
To give the hat a 3D look, I added a bit of poly fiberfill before whip stitching the opening closed.
The hat will be embellished more but I'm holding off for the time being until I decide on what embellishments I'll be using on the rest of the block.
Leaning toward paint

I have several boxes left from my painting days, this is another that I
popped the lid's wood off to recess for needlework. The stitchery is not
perfect...
