flower head bands

My friend had a baby shower so I decided to make some homemade gifts.

I love these cute flowers, I can't get enough.

For this one I started with a piece of felt cut into a circle and glued some tule to it.

Then I adjusted the stitch length to 4.5 to gather the fabric

Then you just wind it into a circle 

This time I'm just going to turn it over and apply glue (hot glue) all over the bottom of it then place it on the felt circle. 

There, that makes it clean, fast and easy. (you'll see the flower if I turn it over)

So I love it! and I just attached it to some white cotton that I made into a head band.

To make this one I just attached tule to the top of it and gathered it all together at the same time.

And here is a picture of how to gather in case there is someone out there that does not know how. You just pull the string after you have sewn it on the longest stitch length.
