Ruffled Lace Headwrap

In case you missed this post, here it is... I was lucky enough to get to be a part of See Kate Sew's Ruffles Series. I'm sure I've mentioned it a few times, but Kate is truly one of my all time favorite bloggers, she has a unique vintage style and she is always original. I have also told her I think she used to be a clothing model :) Her Ruffles 2012 Series was amazing! Here is my ruffly contribution:

I'm so honored to be a part of the very famous "Ruffles 2012 Series"! I have to admit, I'm not a super frilly girl and I have two sons so I was stumped for a bit when Kate asked me to work with ruffles. Then I realized, I can make ruffles work with my style. So I came up with this Ruffled Lace Headwrap. I love headbands and headwraps, so why not have some ruffles?
You need two strips for fabric - both about 58" x 3". I used solid yellow for the back and scraps for the front that I pieced together. 

Then you need to taper the ends. Pencil it as a cutting guide then cut and pin right sides together.

Then sew leaving one end open and flip right side out.

Cut lace 2" wide.

My favorite... the RUFFLE FOOT :) 

Pin the ruffled lace to the center of the headwrap and sew. Only add the lace to about 8"-10" or you won't be able to tie your headwrap in the back.

And now you have your ruffly, fun headwrap. 

Thanks so much Kate for all the ruffly inspiration :)

Love to hear what you think!
