Hello, goodmorning hivers and to the diyhub community. I am so glad to be a part of this creative community.Hope I am welcomed to stay?
As my contribution to the community I would like to share with you how I made my satin hair bonnet with riffles. Without wasting much time, let's dive into the few steps I used to achieve this.

MATERIALS I USED

print fabric of choice
Satin fabric
Elastic
Pins
Safety pin
Scissors
Sewing machine
Chalk

Step 1
I cut out the print fabric at 29 inches by 29 inches.

Then I folded it into two, like so馃憞

Then into two again,

I located the folded edge, and I took my radius at 14 inches all around.

Then I cut it out.

I opened it up, and I have a full circle.

STEP 2
I placed my first circle on the satin fabric, using it as a template to cut out another circle.

STEP 3
After cutting both the print fabric and the satin fabric,I placed both right sides facing each other, and I stitched all around by half inch (0.5"), leaving about 5 inches for turning.

STEP 4
I went ahead to mark down the circle, 1.5 inches all around.And I marked another circle half an inch away from the first circle, leaving a 5-inch opening.

I went ahead and stitched it all around, leaving the opening in the second circle.

Step 5

I measured my head circumference loosely to get the length of my elastic.I secured the elastic with the safety pin.
Then I passed it through the opening.(I also secured the other end to stop it from going into the opening.)I stitched the elastic down with my sewing machine. (You can also decide to tie both ends together.)
STEP 6

For the opening, I folded in the raw edges and stitched it down with the sewing machine. (You can also stitch it with hand needle).
Here is how it looks like when I was done.
