This week I’m giving you a brand new pattern for a “saucy” little hat that will fit dolls with a head circumference of 6 and a quarter inches (that’s 15.8 cm in metric terms).

I designed this hat when I was taking a women’s history course at Boise State University. One of the instructors in that course was very kind to me, and even walked along the Boise Greenbelt with me. We shared stories of our family heritage and the women from our families who had inspired us.

This particular instructor was very moved by a little-known woman in history, whose name was Rose Winslow. (Click on the link I’ve provided to learn more about Rose–AKA Ruza.)

I designed today’s hat as part of a full outfit from the early Women’s Civil Liberties movement, inspired very much by a photo I found of Rose Winslow online while doing research for my Boise State University class.

With a watery blue background behind her, an Ever After High doll seems to be strolling along in a 1920's dress that has a low waist to the pinafore and a long-sleeved shirt beneath. She wears a pair of loafers that match her turquoise blue hat. The hat is worn at a slight angle, with the brim flipped back to expose her lovely eyes. The watermark on this photo reminds us to visit ChellyWood.com for free printable PDF sewing patterns for making doll clothes to fit dolls of many shapes and all different sizes.

At the end of the class, we were all given a chance to present what we had learned. This little doll and her 1920’s-style outfit became part of my final PowerPoint presentation. I think the class was awed by what I had created, and someone dubbed this, Rose’s “Saucy hat!”

So there you have it. Would you like to make the Rose Winslow “Votes for Women” sash shown below? If so, please click here.

In this photo, an Ever After High doll poses as a Suffragist or Suffragette of approximately the 1920's. She wears a purple drop-waisted pinafore over a white blouse with long sleeves. Over top of both of these garments, she parades her sash which has been embroidered with the words "Votes for Women." She also wears a cute little hat with a floppy brim that is folded back to expose her enormous eyes. The color of her mint green penny loafers matches the green of her hat. The pinafore is made of purple cotton with white polka dots. she stands before a speckled purple, lavender, mint green, and blue background. The ground at her feet is white. In the lower left corner of the image is the watermark: Chelly Wood.

And for anyone who wants to make the whole outfit, yes, it will eventually be available here, on ChellyWood.com.

But think about this as well: what a cool Halloween costume this makes!
