![]() I then thought well now I need to send my grandson something so I found a pattern for a bow tie. I made her 3 of them and my granddaughter 2. I haven’t but I saw your website and it looked the easiest to make. I remembered that she loves scarves and asked if I had ever made any infinity scarves. I wanted something else quick that I could make a couple of to finish off the gift. ![]() Now I hope it fits her as well as I hope it will. Well it took me several days and two muslin samples before I was satisfied with it. It was a 10 Gore skirt with a really flirty headline that looked like it would “swish” when she walked. I saw a skirt on a website that I liked but couldn’t find a pattern for and I wouldn’t buy the skirt because that’s not the point of a “handmade” birthday. This year I picked 6 quilted baskets that fit inside each other not hard just took a long time to quilt. I always try to send my daughter a box of “handmades by mom” for her birthday, because Christmas always seems to be just about the grandchildren. I really like this pattern/tutorial it was really the easiest thing I’ve seen in forever. Start to finish, with 3 sewing machines and about 15 ladies, this project took us only an hour.įiled Under: Accessories, Adult Clothing, Beginner Sewing Projects, Gifts, Sewing Projects, Women's Sewing We did this as a project in my local MOMs group, and I had a lot of fun sharing my love of sewing with my friends. The second method is faster, but the topstitching can be seen. Then you can either do a blind stitch by hand to close the hole invisibly, or you can fold the raw edges in and pin them together then sew a straight stitch across the hole to close it. ![]() Turn the scarf all the way right sides out through the hole you left. Once you have this done, sew around the circle end of the tube, leaving an opening that you can reach your hand through to finish turning the scarf. In other words, you don’t want any twists in the tube. Once you have the raw edges lined up at the top end of the tube, make sure the seam edges also match. This is easiest to accomplish by reaching into through middle of the tube, grabbing the end, and pulling it into the middle of the tube. Next – you’re going to turn the tube halfway. Once you have your piece of fabric, fold it right sides together, matching the long edges. The ones in the group project were made from cotton flannel prints, which are toward the stiffest, least drapey end of the scale. The scarf pictured above is a cotton voile – that’s on the thinnest, most drapey end of the scale. You can use pretty much any type of fabric for this, but keep in mind that the thicker/less drapey the fabric is, the thicker and fuller the scarf will be. You can either but 2 yards of fabric and make 2 scarves out of those 2 yards, or you can use one yard, cut it into two 36 in by 22 in pieces and then sew them together along one 22″ side to create 1 scarf out of 1 yard. To make each scarf, you need a 2 yard by 22″ piece of fabric. Today I’m showing how to sew an infinity scarf – which also happens to be a great project for beginners and even to do in a group. Hey y’all – we now continue our regular programming for this month – Accessories.
