Quilted Hood, Pink Coral Print
Fourth hood. This one also has machine quilting perpendicular to the brim, and has the black wool exterior. The lining is the pink coral Old Sturbridge print that I used on my apron (dubbed by Elise the "brain" fabric). The ties match their respective fabric, and the outer wool is folded over the raw edges. The unique feature of this hood is a double layer of cotton batting instead of wool inside. It's less puffy as a result, but the back folds fall more gracefully.
I like the aesthetic of the black wool with a bright cotton lining.
