DIY Leopard Turban Headband

This DIY turban headband is the perfect accessory to pimp your everday style. You can wear the turban headband as well as an vintage hollywood inspired, glamourous party accessory, as combined to an basic black outfit to make a great statement of style!
The tutorial is very easy and you can also recycle some old T-shirts!
Here are the things which you will need for this tutorial:
Leopard patterned elastic Jersey fabric
(or any other chosen elastic knit or jersey fabric)
Fabric Scissors
Sewing Machine/or needle and yarn for the handsewn version
Iron

Cut two stripes of elastic jersey fabric with the measurements 60 cm width x 22 cm. Sew the strips together (1cm seam allowance) so they are half of the width.

Turn the fabric inside out so you have two tubes of the fabric, then iron the two stripes and place one stripe over the other.

Twist both stripes and bring the four open edges together. Make sure that the ends are exactly placed onto each other.Then sew the four ends together and turn inside out so that the seam allowance is inside. Finished!!!

Now you can also add metal studs or sequins for a iconic look!
I hope you like this tutorial!!

beautiful, but how do you turn it inside out to hide the seam allowance after youve already sewn up the 4 open pieces??
