Materials
・Chiffon fabric:
- 14 × 50 cm, 2 pieces
- 6 × 20 cm, 1 piece
・1 hair elastic (in a loop)
・Thread for sewing by hand
Making
Fold the 14 × 50 cm fabric in half, with the front facing outward. Use the template to mark the line to sew, allow a 1-cm margin and cut the fabric. Do the same to the other piece of fabric.
Note: Cut with a seam allowance of 1 cm.
Sew a rough running stitch (stitch length about 1 cm), then pull the thread to draw the fabric together. With the same thread, do the same to the second piece of fabric and draw the fabric together.
Sew the left and right pieces of fabric together in the middle.
Make the part to attach to the middle of the ribbon.
After folding the 6 cm × 20 cm fabric into three, tie it into a simple knot that sits in the center of the fabric (the image shows a different fabric).
Fold into three so that the edge of the fabric lies slightly inside.
Arrange it so that the edge of the fabric does not appear on the front
With the knot facing the front, place (4) in the center of (3). On the back, insert the looped hair tie and wrap (4) around it. Complete by folding about 1 cm of the ends inward and sewing them in place.(Cut it if it is too long)
