How to Sew a Party Hat: FREE Pattern

Spring is coming and in my family—that means a bunch of kiddo birthdays. So many niblings! In an effort to stay ahead of the game, I whipped up a beginner-friendly birthday party hat pattern using gorgeous fabric prints from Benartex’s Good Vibes and Black, White & Bright collections and published the final result on the WeAllSew blog, where you’ll find step-by-step instructions and the free downloadable PDF pattern.

What makes this birthday party hat pattern unique is that there are no raw edges or exposed paper (the inside is fully lined too!), which really levels up the finished product while still being quick and easy. (I made another one last night while my husband prepped dinner. They’re that fast.)

Card stock gives the hat its shape and the fabric gives it both style and a professional finish. I love that there’s no raw edges and that the whole hat can be made without glue! (Or with glue, if that’s your jam.) If you’ve never stitched through paper before, you’ll be amazed how nice and crisp it makes the finished product.
