First iron your fabric, then cut a rectangle of fabric.
Fold 1/2" of each long side of the rectangle. Iron in place.
Fold ans iron by the middle, this is just for marking the middle.
Unfold the rectangle by the middle again. Take the shortest side and fold it in the middle, slightly overlapping the middle line.
Iron in place.
Do the same on the other end.
Sew a loose stitch across the middle.
Gather the stitch until you get a bow.
Cut a strip of fabric to cover the middle.
Slip the headband between the bow and the thread. This is optional you could just glue it.
Glue the middle of the bow (where its gathered) and glue it to the headband. I used hot glue but you can use any glue you like.
Glue both ends to the headband, this will force it to keep the rounded shape.
glue one end of the fabric strap to the back of the bow, wrap the bow and headband with the fabric strap.
You could also do the bow without a headband attached, just skip the part where you stick it to the headband.
