Working with felt is amazingly easy and I keep seeing cute little projects that don’t require (much) sewing at all. For today’s DIY I am showing you how adorable little felt bows can be as an accessory. Interested to learn how?
The bow from this pattern measures about 2 inches in width. Ready to make one or two or more of this cute felt bow patterns?

To showcase the use of little felt bows besides hair accessories I added those to a tutu dress since the chest band is a wide meshed crochet headband and very see-through.

The felt bows in action 🙂
To use these bows as an accessory for clothing you can either use a safety pin and fasten the bow on the backside to the clothing. For my adorable example I hand stitched the bows to the crochet band of my tutu dress. I made two bows and used them to hide the skin which would otherwise peek through the wide meshed crochet band.
BTW, the amazing photographs are by Rebekah Erharbor! She does wonderful work and her little one is the best.
