New Sewing Machine Experiment! (Ear warmer attempt)


So here is my attempt at making an EAR WARMER, I found this idea on a really great blog I found through Pinterest of course! I have had my sewing machine for about 2 months now and I figure the best way to learn how to use it, is to just go for it and start making things! I had some scrap fabric laying around (green would not be my color of choice) and then found an old white fleece blanket in the lost and found here at Woodleaf. So here it goes!






Ok, still haven't mastered my button hole skills on the new machine so here is a really easy way to make a fastener that doesn't require a button hole!! All you need is a pony tail elastic, which I actually took right off my wrist. Does the button look familiar? I made it out of polymer clay in a previous post!
I had to add some decoration! Here is a fabric flower, I wanted it to be big but I may have over done it.

Super easy:

Step 1: Cut fabric circles.
Step 2: Fold circles in half, and then in half again.
Step 3: Glue or sew folded circle to a piece of felt.
Step: Fluff your petals and tadaa!!



And here it is, a cozy fleece lined ear warmer with an oversized flower!!
