I have a headband!
Feeling industrious, I completed the headband the night after the last post. Not that it was hard, mind you.
Project Source: this tutorial, as previously noted.
Project Notes: I used elastic that came with my father in law’s dress shirt, wrapped around the fancy box. It’s much fancier than plain elastic! I made the thinner of the 2 templates offered. I only interfaced one of the fabrics; it wasn’t clear whether I was to do both.
Mistakes/Complications: I made the elastic 4 inches as spec’d, which was way too loose. I then lazily just folded it in a little and sewed it tighter. Now it is a little too tight. As you can see from the photo, you can also see a little of the reverse fabric peeking out. Poor ironing, I suppose.
Notes for Next Time: It’s a little wide as is, make it 1/2″ narrower overall. Also cut the elastic 1/2″ shorter, that’s probably shorter enough.
