DIY Embroidered Bow Scarf


I know I am not the only one that has fallen in love with Ruffles & Stuff's Wrapped in Bows Scarf Tutorial.  It really is just so cute!  



It all started when I got this for my Birthday!  Thanks honey!


I wanted a quick and easy project that I could test it out on.  

I bought 2 scarves at Old Navy for only $1 each on clearance.  When I got them home I realized they were a little wide.  So I just used 1 scarf cut in half lengthwise.

My other sewing machine had like 9 basic stitches and this one has lots of pretty stitches.  So for my scarf I decided to embroider the edges with a fancy snow stitch.


Ruffles & Stuff really does have a great tutorial and I want to make sure and give her credit for it so you really should go check it out.  It is very easy to follow. Plus, that means I don't need to recreate it because it is already done!

The bows turned out so cute with the stitching along the edges.


I love my new scarf, and my new sewing machine!
