Exceptional video: perfect speed of instructions, great lighting and close ups, very good voice modulation, well edited and no excessive blather. A rarity for DIY videos.
I’ve been watching so many videos on how to make these and this video is by far the best I’ve seen. So clear and easy to follow. Also, the end result was the neatest and this is the only video where they create the inside casing for the wire. I love it!!! Thank you!!! Just brilliant!
Another straightforward tutorial - I found it even easier to follow using with one piece of fabric (#1 is better for multiple makers imho) thanks again:)
Wonderful tutorial…thank you! The instructions to create the channel for the wire by sewing the folded side was ingenious! I’ve made a few of these headbands in the past using other tutorials but never once was it suggested to create an invisible channel this way🙏🏽
@@NotchesSewing little update, just made this and your guide was amazing, it turned out brilliant, thank you for the simple yet precise easy to follow intsructions. x
Watched the jelly roll video last night. Also cute. I could just use the sewing instructions for that pattern but the cut sizes of this one to make the wider, retro size!
I just found your site and I am so pleased!! Your instructions are fabulous and you speak so clearly it makes it a pleasure to listen. I hope to see many more wonderful ideas from you. I will follow this terrific site!!!
Great tutorial. I have made lots of these headbands. I do find the wires get twisted and slip so I'm going to try and find a way to attach the wire in the pointed ends.
Thank you for such a clear and concise tutorial. I’m new to sewing, and I’m working my way through some beginner projects-I’ll use my scraps to make headbands! 😊
I’ve never made with satin. If it is a thicker satin, you probably don’t need to add interfacing. Just test on a little piece of scrap to see if the end of the wire pokes through easily.
Angela, I love your pattern, thank you. I’ve made a couple. Is there a trick to prevent the wire from easing away from the ends? Hope that makes sense. I like the wite to be at the tips because the way I wear it I like it to look like a bow and if the wire pulls away from the tips it’s harder to shape the bow. TY❤
Well, I did a dumb thing. I went to Joann’s and bought some Halloween fabric to make these, and I didn’t realize how long 40 inches was! 🤦🏻♀️🙄😂 (I am a beginner sewer)… I only got 1 yard each of the fabric I want to use. Will these still turn out okay if I make them slightly smaller? Like instead of 40 inches, can I get away with doing 36? Ugh I’m so mad at myself. I hate when I learn lessons like this! Thanks for the wonderful tutorial. I can’t wait to get started on this even tho I may have to end up giving it to some kids!!! 😂🤦🏻♀️
You can cut 5” x 38”. You really need to experiment a bit depending on age of child and look you are after. Maybe just make one for yourself and then decide how much shorter and narrower you need it. Cheers
