STEPS
TOOLS
Gather supplies
Choose your material,
33cm x 14.5cm this is the size I used but normally I don't measure. Remember you now is going to be half the length of you starting size and about 5 cm smaller in width
Fold material in half length ways and mark with a pin, unfold
Fold a small hem at top and bottom pin or iron in place
Make sure you remove the hem pins so that you only have these two on now
Stitch from the back to the front at the very top of the fabric
Then tack stitch all the way down the middle, do not use a tight stitch and it doesn't have to be perfect.
Keep on until you are happy with the shape
Wind the tread round twice tightly and secure with a small stitch on the back, do not cut thread yet!
Place it over the middle of your now covering the stitches
Overlap at the back and using your still attached thread sew through a couple of times and secure the cut thread
Attach bobby pin or clasp
Done!
You can use any size material and do the same steps to get different size bows
