A couple weeks ago, I shared this cute ruffle ric rac headband tutorial for AliLily’s Christmas in July event.  I wanted to repost here incase any of you missed it.

 

All you need is a headband, a 5/8″ wide strip of fabric approximately 2x the length of the the headband, a 3″  wide bias strip approximately 2x the length of the the headband , a glue glue gun, and a sewing machine or needle and thread.  (if you need more info on how to make bias strips, check out this post .  You can also use ribbon instead of fabric if you like.)

 

**Please excuse the change of fabric, but it is easier to see in these pictures.**

 

Use a disappearing fabric marker to make marks every 2″ along one of  the long sides of the bias strip.  On the opposite long side, make marks centered between the marks at the top of the ribbon/bias strip.  (i.e. I started marking at the very beginning at the top, and at the bottom, I started marking at the 1″ mark)  Be sure to make your marks on the RIGHT side of the fabric and run your gathering stitch with the RIGHT side up because whatever side the bobbin thread is on, is the side the fabric will curve too.

 

Starting at one end connect the points from opposite sides with a gathering stitch, to form a zigzag as pictured above.

 

Now pull the bobbin thread to gather the bias strip down to the same length as the headband.  Wrap the headband with the 5/8″ strip, and you are ready to apply the ruffled ric rac to the headband.

 

Find the center of the ruffled ric rac, apply a small amount of hot glue to the top center of the headband, and then, press the ruffle ric rac in place.

 

 

Continue attaching the ruffle ric rac to the headband down one side, then the other.

 

 

And DONE!  Isn’t she sassy?!?  lol
