My DIY Fascinator using an ankara fabric.

Hello everyone @diyhub community am glad to always be here
Its been an amazing week and i hope yours is going on smoothly.
Today i decided to create a fascinator using an ankara fabric

Thank you so much for going through my post.

The materials i used are

• Ankara fabric,you can used any fabric of your choice provided you use hair warden to make it harder or firm
• Thread:when creating this, your thread colour will depend on the colour of your fabric .
• Scissors
• Hair stay : just to make the akara fabric firm.

The first step i took was to cut out my materials
I measured it to my desired length
I didn't want it to be too big or too small,i went for a medium size.

I made with it a rectangular shape,you can either make yours bigger or smaller,but mine was a minimum size.
I ironed my hairstay on it,just to make it firm,and
i sewed round it,

I used scissors and i trimmed of the excess allowance that i had so that it will be easier and neated when i pulled out the right side of the fabric.

After that,i folded the fabric into two and i made a mark on the centre of the fabric using scissor to create a little hole .

After creating the hole with the scissors,i pulled out the right side of the fabric through the hole

I ironed it and i started pleating it from the top to the bottom

I held unto the middle and i got a thread and tied it around and firmly in the middle.

I also got a small piece of fabric and i tied it around the thread i had tied earlier.
My reason was to hide the thread i had used and to make it neat.

I got my black hair band and fixed it through the middle.

And am glad i was able to finished it today despite my busy schedule
