Bow tie

I made the bow tie in a bigger version, cause I like it also for in my hair. I was requested to do a DIY Bow tie. So, here it is.

What do you need?

Fabric

Triangle ruler

Pencil

Scissors

Iron

bobby pin

hand needle

thread

Let's Start!

1) Draw two pieces; 30 á 35 by 12 cm and 10 by 4 cm, cut 'em out. (Bow tie 17 by 8 cm 10 by 2cm)

 2) Iron the edges 1 cm in.

3) Thread your needle and tie a knot in the end.

4) Fold the fabric in half, mark the middle with the pencil, open it up again. 

 5) Fold both sides 1 cm over the mark for overlap. Now you have a bow shape.

6) Push through the edge with the needle and loop it one more time to secure.

7) Sew one 1 cm wide till the other-side, do not secure.

8) Pull the thread for the perfect bow shape.

9) Round the thread over the center for a few times and secure.

10) wrap the little piece around the bow

11) Push the needle trough the piece, wrap it around for a couple times and secure.

12) Cut the leftover off

13) slip your bobby pin through the piece

14) You're done.

Good luck!
