Welcome to A Milliner's Whimsy, home of straw millinery by Anna as well as historic and historically inspired items of whimsy.

My straw millinery is sewn by hand and block using original/antique blocks and years of research. New hats and bonnets will be added to the shop as I complete them.

Items of Whimsy appear seasonally and as the mood desires. These can range from sewing accessories to pen wipes to ornaments.

Anna’s work is always amazing! This hat surpasses the beauty and quality even of the one I ordered last year. The contrast is delightful, and the transitions subtle. Looking forward to adding this to my impressions.

This is a great source for creating your own bonnet. Anna's information is very clear and the illustrations are very helpful.
