Easy Peasy Fabric Bow!

Bows are so cute and so easy to make! With this simple tutorial, you'll be able to make a bow in a matter of minuets! 

1) Cut out a rectangle piece of fabric

2) Fold this piece of fabric from both sides

3) Fold this piece of fabric on itself, slightly overlapping one side.

4)Take the fabric and pinch it in the center. 

5) Take a matching/complementary colour of thread and sew trough the center of the fabric... 

Hopefully leaving you with something that looks like this! 

6) Take a small piece of rectangular fabric, fold it in by itself on both side (this saves your from hemming it). 

Then sew it around the middle of the bow (leave a small gap if you want to put a bobby pin through it, to make it a clip). 

You should be left with something that looks like this!
