Headscarves Expansion 2019 Part 3

I have now reached the final furlong of the sewing part of this project.

Snip the Edging

I Snipped off some of the excess material at an angle so it didn’t get caught in the thread when I sewed.

Fold Back Edging

I Folded the Edging back on itself. I then began to sew it in place using a Tacking Stitch. This is to strengthen the thread holding the Edging in place.

To make the Tacking look neat I interwove the thread between the other Stitches. This method gives the appearance that a Back Stitch was used.

Fleur de Lys Back Complete

Once finished I trimmed off the excess material above the Stitches.

Fleur de Lys Front Complete

All that was left to do was give it a final press.

Rose Back Complete

Naturally since I was Edging one Headscarf I decided that I might as well do the other one at the same time.

Rose Front Complete

I now have two newly Edged Headscarves ready for the Summer Season.
