And a little girl in a dress, isn’t quite complete without a little something in her hair.

So I made a little crushed flower and put in on a headband.  [I used the fold over elastic that I talked about inthis post.  It's super soft.  But I just cut it right down the middle to make it more narrow.  I like it better.  No, it didn't unravel. :) ]

Nice and lovely on those soft little newborn heads.

Would you like to create your own crushed fabric flowers?

Now remember, these can be made with any type of fabric.  I used satin but have made them with woven cotton too.  Just as adorable.

First, start with a narrow strip of fabric.  I started with a strip that was 1 1/4 inch wide and about 15 inches long.  (How wide or narrow you make the strip will change the look of your flower.  Change it up and experiment with it.  You make like it better a little different.)

Fold the strip in half lengthwise and sew it into a tube, with the right side of the fabric facing out.  Use a zig-zag stitch or serge it.
