Reversible Headbands
This is a very simple and easy project to do with your young ones. Let them work with you in cutting and choosing their fabrics. If they are a little older, let them take a run at sewing an edge together. They will feel so proud when it is completed! These headbands also make cute little present toppers, wrapped up in a see-through wrapping to show off the fabric colors. The idea is fairly simple; it’s the fabric that makes it unique!
Supplies:
- 2 fabrics, mismatched but complementing each other (14″ long and 2″ wide)
- 2 ribbons, each 7″ long
Directions
- Sew your fabrics inside out leaving bottoms open.
- Turn fabric right side out. I like to use a safety pin to safely pull it through. Work the fabric through gently until it is right side out.
- Press your headband.
- Now, fold in a seam at the bottoms. Take your two ribbons and place one on each end. Slipping the ribbon between your seams, pin in place.
- Sew your bottom seams together, also sewing in your ribbons. Reinforce the ribbons extra strong. These take a good tugging when you’re pulling your headband tight… the stronger the better. Enjoy!
