In my research into making a top hat I found several very useful instructional sites, which I will share here, but because of the style I wanted I couldn't actually follow any of them to the letter and had to create my own pattern.
Leather Learn: Top Hat I believe this site uses a pattern that you can buy at Tandy Leather. The site does have a copy you can download and resize.
