How to make a No Sew Bow Tie-

You will need:

• Two strips of Ribbon 10″ (I used May Arts Metallic Gold)
• One ribbon 3″ long
• Fusible Interfacing 10″ by the same width as the ribbon and an additional 3: strip
• Matching strip of fusible web,
• Elastic 9″ for a bow 10-11″ for a hairband (I used May Arts 5/8″)
• Hot Glue Gun
• Iron
• Lighter to singe the ends of the ribbon (optional)

1. Lay the interfacing onto the ribbon and iron down. Iron fusible web to the the interfacing, remove paper. Lay second strip of ribbon onto the pile, iron in place. Your ribbon sandwich will now be ridged.
2. Iron interfacing onto the 3″ribbon.
3. Using the Hot glue fold in each side of the 3″ strip to make it appear narrower.
4. Fold each side of the long strip to meet in the centre, hot glue in place.
5. Pinch the ribbon in the middle folding the edges to meet on the wrong side.
6. Holding the centre in place fold the edges back up to meet the fold. Hot glue between the folds to hold.
7. Hot glue the elastic band to the wrong side of the bow
8. Glue the 3″ strip to the back side roll around the centre of the bow and hot glue to conceal the elastic.
