  • Are you looking for a fun and simple headband tutorial to tame that crazy hair? This one is for you!
    This headband should only take you about an hour to make. You will need a piece of cotton that is 6'' x 16'' and another that is 4'' x 12''. You also need a 8'' piece of elastic (that will be shortened to about 6.5'') . You also need a sewing machine, thread, scissors, iron & ironing board, and a large safety pin.

    Since I know you are wondering, here are some of the things I used in this video...
    -My favorite seam ripper! amzn.to/2IIyd1K
    -my tube turner by Dritz! This one is pink but the same! amzn.to/2qoDfca
    -the clear plexiglass ruler! amzn.to/2Hq4YBj
    -a machine similar to the one I am using amzn.to/2GPTF4p

    Thank you! I just finished making two I made the first one just like you showed. The second one I doubled the material so my niece can wear it on either side. They are super easy to make thanks to your tutorial! I appreciate all you talented ladies on you tube that love to share your talent! Thank you again!

    Hi, Virginia! Just wanted to let you know that several in our community are using your above wonderful tutorial! The only addition, we have added buttons so that face masks can be attached to the headband. As we all know, during this time our First Responders must wear face masks at all times which has their ears raw and sore in the back. This is the perfect solution! On behalf of our little community, thank you for sharing your video and creation! Katrina Winter from Langley, British Columbia, Canada.

    I have a hard time getting a headband to stay on my head, but I think this one might work. I can't wait to try making one, or two.

    Thank you for sharing! Store bought headbands are always too tight and cause headaches for me. This one I made just tight enough to stay put. I love it!

    Yes... your right - this is great for curly hair. I made mine a little wider to sit a little further at the back of my head where it meets my wild crazy hair bun. 😉now it looks neat. Thanks for easy to follow instructions 😘katrina

  • @dovewc3
    @dovewc3 4 роки тому

    Thank you so much for the tutorial. These headbands are very comfortable and easy to make.I like the suggestion about pinning it before sewing the last seam together to make sure it fits and isn’t too tight. Which you are right causes a headache

    Loved the tips. I’m a little scared of the fabric ripping but the tip on the seam ripper was great! My mental state has definitely been affected by having to use the seam ripper as a novice sewer. I have actually let out the Charlie Brown Arrrgh! Over the amount of mistakes I have made that require me to Use the seam ripper. We are still not friends, but I’m pretty sure I’ll get there, eventually.

    I have been asked by a nurse friend to make some headbands for her and her friends. This is the best tutorial I have seen. I am also adding buttons to ease the pressure on their ears. Thanks for making this tutorial.

    I'm total beginner and having a lot of trouble stitching the ends of the first piece so they'll gather. Any idea what settings I should use on Singer tradition machine? I'm getting so frustrated :(

    • @beth7467
      @beth7467 4 роки тому +1

      Try using the longest stitch on your machine -- and don't back stitch at the start or at the end. You want to be able to pull the threads easily. Hope this helps. -- From another beginner :)
