Materials Needed:
- 1/4 yard of 60" wide soft lightweight fabric with drape – we suggest challis, silk types and charmeuse
- Yardstick
- Fabric pen or pencil
- Scissors
- Straight pins
- Sewing machine
- Matching thread
- Iron
- Hand sewing needle
- 1-1/4" to 1-1/2" slide buckle
Instructions:
- Straighten out cut edge if necessary. Measure and mark a line 7" from the cut edge, running along the width of the fabric. Cut along this line and trim off selvages.
- With RIGHT sides of fabric facing each other, fold fabric in half widthwise, with cut long edges even and forming a long tube. Pin along long edges.
- Stitch long edge in a 1/2" seam. Trim corners.
- Pin one short end closed and stitch in a 1/2" seam. Trim off remaining corner.
- Turn the tube RIGHT side out through remaining opening in scarf, poking corners out gently as far as they will go.
- Fold the ends of the opening to the INSIDE 1/2" and pin in place. Slip stitch opening closed with hand sewing needle and matching thread.
- Press scarf flat. To wear, pull both ends of scarf through slide buckle (as shown in photo above).
