How to sew a headband


Step 1

From the silk fabric, cut out two rectangles measuring 52 x 18 cm. Turn one long section of each part twice into a width of 5 mm and stitch it to the edge.

Step 2

Fold one of the parts with the front side inward along a long cut, pin and grind to a width of 1 cm, leaving a 3 cm long section behind open. Seam allowances should be ironed twice on both sides of the seam 5 mm wide and pin.

Step 3

Stitch seam allowances on either side of the seam to the edge, not reaching approx. 2 cm to the open area.

Step 4

Thread the second part through the hole in the first part to half the length. Close the longitudinal section, leaving a 3 cm section open in the seam.

Step 5

Iron the seam allowances twice on both sides of the seam to a width of 1 cm, pin and stitch to the edge.The drapery at the dressing is now centered.

Step 8

Tighten the short sections of the part inwards to a width of 1 cm and pin to the elastic tape. So on the part you get the assembly.

Patch short sections of the dressing up to a length of 2.5 cm, insert into the part with elastic tape and sew on the edge.
