My "Nina" Ruffled Headband - a new design

Hi!

I am always trying to figure out some new designs for my hair accessories. 

I love the  look of   ruffled pom poms, usually with chiffon, but this time instead of making them in a circle or round shape, I decided to elongate them, to give them  an oval shape.

 This is how the ruffles turned out and I love this design!

Will name it "Nina":)

I will share the tutorial with you  all, gals!

 I used white felt, salmon chiffon , needle, scissors, pencil, invisible thread and hot glue

First things first:

Cut the oval piece of felt, whatever size suits you and your desire for drama !

 

Cut small rectangular pieces

 
Fold them lengthwise in half.

Fold again to form a square .


Cute a semi circle shape on top

(I am mixing fabric colors here as for some reason I can not find all the photos of the salmon color ruffle..does this spell disorganized?? :(

So here we go on with white:

Start stitching in the middle of the oval felt, as if you were gonna do a regular round shape ruffled flower

At this point you have a regular round flower/pom pom

Then , I started to add the fabric to  extremities of the felt, folding it in half to make it narrower  before stitching. This also gave the piece for more volume.

Continue attaching side by side and filling in.

Ready !

 

 

 Now attach to a headband or comb. Cut another oval felt to cover the stitches and help attaching it to the headband

Could not stop in one...so I made many many colors !!

All in my shop soon!
