Fabric Head Band with flower


 I saw these head bands at a local farmers market and decided I could
I could make them my self instead of spending the money on them and it was
super easy!

Step #1 fold fabric in half, for this I used and 18" long piece
you want it to be 3" in the middle and taper to 1" at the base.
Step #2 Sew a stay stitch at 1/4" I use a #4 stitch on my sewing machine
which is the longest I can make my stitch.
Step #3 Do the same with a smaller piece of contrasting fabric.
Truthfully I just measured the smaller piece until I liked the look of it.
Pin on and repeat step #2.
Step #4 I cut down fabric and sewed along just so it would stay together.
I then just rolled it up and put a dot of hot glue every few inches.
Step #5 I attached ribbon to the bottom to come underneath my hair and tie,
again I just measured until I had the size I wanted. I then just glued on my flower.
This project cost me nothing because it all came out of scrap fabric!
