How to Sew a Land Girl Style Head Scarf

Take the 2 x fat quarter pieces lay them right sides together. Fold in half creating a triangular type of shape as photo so you have the longest length possible. Lay the pattern on the fold and cut around shape

Now you have 2 x pattern pieces cut out of fabric.

Lay out the pieces flat and turn the edges inwards to create the peak (see pictures or video) sew the seam along the edges x 4 times.

Now you have 2 x headsarves, place them with right sides together, pin and sew the whole way round leaving a 6cm gap in the bottom of the curve.

Create 'notches' around the curve and snip of the excess at the tip of the peaks.

Turn the whole piece through in the gap you left earlier and iron flat.

Handsew up the gap and viola you're done!

Extend the fabric and add a seam where the pattern says place on fold. Use the larger headscarf template available to download to help guide you. This will make the whole headscarf bigger but, please note it will no longer fit on one fat quarter.

Print the 2 pages at a4 size and attach where indicated on the pattern to make a full paper pattern

Cut 2 x fat quarters on the fold line

If you would like to make this pattern bigger and still use fat quarters extend and add a seam rather than cut on fold at this line.

If the fabric allows (If you're not using fat quarters) simply extend this fold line out and extend the peak at the top to suit the new size.
