Handsewn Kippah

This was my first successful attempt at sewing my own . I was having trouble with using my sewing machine for making the stitches, so I decided to sew by hand and it worked. While this is a personal one, I’m in a process of making a special one as thank you for my surgeon (and his brother who is also a surgeon) who is Jewish and did a wonderful job with my surgery. It’s going to be one that can go with some scrubs as it has a medical print, with many shades of blue. I previously cut out some fabric for the lining, but got so mad at my cutting that I decided to cut some more out, though I am rethinking If I will use the same lining as before or try something different. I was thinking about embroidering a “Thank you” inside the kippah/ Kippot, but I haven’t decided. I’m liking going to go with a binding tape around the brim like the last as I like how it helps keep the shape. I am not terribly pleased with how wrinkled the last one came out after its first wash.
