I have had for a long time a piece of fabric printed with very striking red flowers. On another occasion I used it as a lining for a purse, and it turned out great because it is very attractive to open the purse and see a fabric like that, it shows that it was made with love. .

Well, today I want to make some bows for a girl, since the fabric is floral and fits very well with the colors of a girl, I have visualized it like this.

This is my first post from InLeo and I want to present the DIY of these Bows for girls, made with two strips...welcome.

There are many techniques to make bows, the one I present to you today is two strips, with only two strips we will make a beautiful bow for girls that will end up with points. I am sure that once you see the technique, you will realize that each bow is different.

Let's start with the materials and follow the step by step with a very detailed infographic, and a gif to better explain the movement of the fabric.

Comenzaremos trabajando el retazo de tela, cortando las dos piezas con las medidas señaladas a continuación:

We sew along the pieces of fabric, with a straight seam on a sewing machine. However, you can do this project by hand, with very neat sewing the result will still be achieved.

I really like using my sewing machine, I don't know why I don't spend more time on it, I really spend very pleasant moments with it and when I finish a project it is very satisfying. Lately I have been using it only to repair things in my house, but I want to dedicate more time to it, that is why you will see that I will create more content related to sewing on my blog.

Once we have the two pieces sewn lengthwise, we proceed to turn it over.

Ya al tener las dos piezas cosidas a lo largo, procedemos a voltearla.

This is how the turned pieces look. We are going to flatten them or iron them with our hands, preferably leaving the seam in the center of each piece, so that it does not hinder the design of the bow.

Así lucen las piezas volteadas, las vamos a aplanar o planchar con las manos puede ser, dejando preferiblemente la costura en el centro de cada pieza, esto con la finalidad de que no entorpezca el diseño del lazo.

Now, I overlap the ends of each piece and sew them by hand. It is a simple seam and we leave the pieces equally with the seam in the center.

Ahora, sobrepongo las puntas de cada pieza y las coso a mano. Se trata de una costura simple y dejamos las piezas igualmente con la costura en el centro.

This step is perhaps the most careful and I present it to you in gifs so you can appreciate it. I turn the center piece over and place it in the same place, making sure to accommodate the ends and the pointed figure that is formed.

It's really easy.

I secure the tips that form at the ends of each piece with pins as seen in the following photo.

We can see that both pieces have a slight difference due to the measurements, they are already formed with the tips, and now with hand sewing I am going to go through the entire half of each one, joining them.

Ambas piezas las podemos apreciar que tienen ligeramente su diferencia por las medidas, ya están formadas con las puntas, y ahora con costura a mano voy a pasar por toda la mitad de cada una, juntándolas.

Aquí se ve como después de juntarlas bien, me aseguro que estén bien apretadas, le doy varias vueltas al lazo con el hilo, y realizo una puntada de seguridad para terminar bien este proceso.

Ya está listo el lazo, se ve realmente hermoso y se puede apreciar el diseño que es de cuatro puntas.
En este punto no había decidido sobre que pinza iba a colocar el lazo, pero ya lo pensé bien.

Deseo que te haya gustado este Tutorial, te garantizo que queda con una estructura muy firme y con un diseño de cuatro puntas muy hermoso y comercial.

Nos leemos en una próxima publicación.
