If you're making a skirt or a dress and you have some extra fabric left.
first part:
- measure the head (5 years is around 52cm)
- fold pattern paper double
- draw a basis-line of 20 cm
- at the folding line: draw a line (12cm long) parallel to the basis-line 3,5 cm above and under
- at the end of basis-line (at 20 cm), draw a point 2,5 cm above and under the basis-line
- draw a line from the end of 12cm (3,5cm above) to the point of 2,5 cm above basis-line
- draw a line from the end of 12cm (3,5cm under) to the point of 2,5cm under basis-line
- cut out this pattern
- cut it twice out of the fabric
- and cut it also once out of vlieseline (a little but smaller)
- draw from the folding line a basis line of 13 cm
- at the folding line, draw a line (6,5cm long) parallel to the basis-line 2 cm above and under
- at the end of the 13 cm basis line draw a point 2,5cm above and under
- draw a line from the 6,5cm point to the point 2,5cm above the basis line (under and above)
- cut out this pattern
- and cut it twice out of the fabric
last part:
- cut an elastic of 16 cm (if head is 52 cm)
- otherwise you have to calculate : 40 cm headband + 12 cm elastic = 52 cm
but on top of this 12cm you add another 4cm for the seams => 12 cm + 4 cm = 16 cm
2. put the good side of the fabrics on top of each other and sew the long edges on 1 cm
3. cut the excess fabric away
6. get the elastic through the casing with a safety pin and fix it at the top
7.put this through the casing of the headband (still the good side of the fabric on the inside)
8. stitch across (forward, backward of forward) this all on 1 cm of the edge
9. pull the elastic casing out and this way turn the headband inside out
