Headscarves Expansion 2019 Part 2

I am continuing my blog on adding Edging to my Fleur de Lys Headscarf

First Corner Edging

I continue with my Tacking Stitch until I reach the First Corner

Pinching Corner

I have two options. One I could cut the Edging at an angle and sew or the secondly I could Fold the Excess material. I opted for the latter.

This option is a little fiddly. The best way to describe the Folding process is that the material is being Pinched.

First Corner Edging Front

The Pinching method means that the Edging does not lie completely Flat. Normally this would be problematic. However since the Headscarf is Folded when worn it simply falls into place.

Final Corner

I have now reached the Final Corner. I cut the Edging leaving at least an inch and a half to finish off.

Fold Back and Secure

In order not to have the excess material flapping around I Fold it back and Secure it with a couple of Stitches.

Hem Edge of Edging

This Fold creates an Edge. I then simply put the two Edges together and Hem the last Corner.
