Just as my wrist scarf was a perfect project for T-Shirt-Yarn scraps this is a great project for all the fabric scraps we have at home! The things you need:
- fabric scraps in colors you like together
- some ribbon (maybe also scraps)
- needle & thread or a sewing machine
Sadly I don't have that much great photos of the whole process because I had someone waiting for its scarf and not understanding, why I would need photos! The one above is mine, the original, but I don't have process photos of that one. And I didn't had time to get a decent pic of the purple one, once it was finished...
But it is really easy to sew this one (and also kind of a version for the lazy sewer aka. me), so you will hopefully still understand what I did.
Let's start:
The first thing you do is to sew all your fabric together to form a long piece.Right side on right side, piece by piece.
At second, fold it over & sew togethee, again left side up. Now you have a tube with both ends open, right? Good!
Now turn the whole things over to have the right side outside just the way you want to wear it.
At last, take one end, fold the fabric a bit inside and then put the other end inside this first end. Sew over all four layers of the fabric at once - this seam will not look that great, and that's where the ribbon get's it gig: Lay it on top of the seam, sew again! You will less likely notive a seam on a ribbon then on the fabric (at least if you chose the right color of thread...).
You can see that I added some more ribbons on my (original, above) scarf, just get creative! Here you can use all the little scraps that serve no other purpose - fabric as well as ribbons! Also, of course, you can adjust the length to whatever you want to have :)
Have fun sewing!
