Scalloped Pinched Bow Set

This tutorial is for the bows pictured above. I have included a PDF pattern that can be downloaded below.

NOTE: The pattern pieces on this PDF will be used for all the Baby Girl Hair Bows I have tutorials for.

This scalloped pinched bow set will use the pattern pieces J, K, L and M.

If you plan to attach the hair bow to a headband like I did. I purchased a pair of nude tights in size large. I cut the top off of the tights. Then I cut a strip that is 3/4″ and give it a little stretch. The edges will curl in and fit anyone comfortable from a newborn to an adult.

Now on to the hair bow . . .

Begin by pinning the pattern pieces J, K, L, and M onto some felt or faux leather.

Use sharp scissors to cut out the pieces.

First, take piece J or M and put a small hot glue drop in the center. Bring the outsides of the bow together into the hot glue.

Next, place a small hot glue drop onto the same place where the outsides of the bow were brought together and place piece K onto piece J or M.

Once pieces J/M and K are glued together you put a small hot glue drop in the center. Pinch the bow together into the hot glue.

Once pieces J/M and K are glued and pinched together you will now attach the bow to the headband. Lay piece L closest to the table with piece J/M and K on top of it. Then lay the headband on the top.

NOTE: You will not be gluing the bow directly to the headband. You want the headband to be able to move freely underneath the bow.

Now place a small hot glue drop onto piece L and glue it to the other end of piece L. Make sure not to get any of the glue onto the headband so it can move freely.
