How to Sew a Scrunchie
This is an awesome project, as you can make your own scrunchie instead of buying them! Scrunchies work great as a hair tie and are a super cute accessory, too!! You can make them out of anything, but most popular are velvet and cotton.
What you will need
one strip of fabric, 3.5” x17”
a thick plain hair tie
thread
hand sewing needle
How to do this project
1
First, cut your fabric. Then grab your hair tie and put the fabric around it with right sides in. Then prepare your sewing machine. *You can also hand sew this part*
2
Now, you start inside of the hair tie and sew the fabric along the edge, using about a 3/5” seam allowance. As you go, pull the hair tie down so you don’t sew over it. The fabric should start scrunching around the hair tie, wrong side out.
3
Once you get to the other end, all of the fabric should be bunched in the hair tie. Then, turn it right side out.
4
You then can turn in the ends and sew and invisible stitch or ladder stitch to close it. There you go!!
