Tutorial: Hexcellent Headband

May 29, 2012 by Michele

 

EDITED TO ADD:

As stated below: As of June 5th, 2012, the tutorial is now in The Shop and additional information is blogged here. Thanks.

‘Tis Tuesday.

And yes. My hexagonal foray continues. I’m severely smitten. But you know that already eh? This time I hopped on a six-sided tangent and look where it got me… To the land of cute headbands!

See, it’s a kind of adorable, and even a little bit retro, headband! Because everyone needs a rainbow for their head. Right?

 

You have a lovely day now, won’t you?

♥M

Please Note: 
This tutorial will be posted here for free for 7 days, after which time it will be available as a PDF in The Shop. Thanks so much!

    Oh! I adore this!!! Love your interfacing method – that way I don't have to try to cut fabric to an exact shape.

    Cute, Michele! I was wondering how you were making such tiny hexagons and now I know. I also like your model for offering this as a free, and later for-purchase pattern. Let us know how it goes!

    This is so darling. I wish that I could wear headbands. I have some kind of deformity that makes all headbands slip off!

    What is it about hexies that enchant us so?

    And now you have become a hexie enchantress!

    Your tutorial is beautifully done, Michele.

    Keeping up with your inspiration is nearly impossible you know! I am still working on the projects your junk mail series inspired and now between the folding and cutting I am grabbing the note book to scribble down new hexie ideas!

    I love this, Michele. You continue to amaze me. Someday you are going to be a big star, my friend 🙂 I just know it.
