You Will Need (3 things)

  • 1 yd Scrap Fabric
  • Safety Pin
  • Notions: Thread , Scissors, Pins, Sewing Machine

Steps (7 steps, 45 minutes)

  1. 1

    Fold your fabric in half. Measure around your neck, loosely, or add an inch or two to the measurement. Mine was 16 inches. Mark each end.

  2. 2

    Next, on each end, where your marks are, measure four inches, and cut.

  3. 3

    Find the middle point between the two cuts. Measure about an inch and a half, and mark it. This makes it a lot easier to see where you should cut.

  4. 4

    On each end, cut toward the middle mark. It should now look something like a collar.

  5. 5

    Fold the ends in (you could iron them to make it easier) and sew each of the ends. The corners are real tricky.

  6. 6

    Next, start sewing in the rest from the middle point.

  7. 7

    Aaaaaand, ta-da! There is your collar! I'm sure there are other ways of fastening the ends together, like a button or a hook and eye, but I used a safety pin.
