Lucy Flower Ear Warmer


Ear warmers are so much fun to make. I can't help myself. You can finish one in an hour or less depending on the design and the possibilities are endless.
 

I just whipped this one up from some scrap fleece from my failed slipper fiasco.

I used the tutorial for the Lucy flower for the rose, but instead of cutting strips 4 and 5 inches wide and ironing them in half; I simply cut strips 2 and 2 1/2 inches and left the edges raw.

P.S. Please note that the ear warmer tutorial is to make ear warmers for personal use and not for sale. Thank you! 
Isn't fleece so people friendly? :)

And do you ever feel this silly when you take pictures of yourself? I do!



I hope you are having a good day and are staying warm....Brrr. It has been in the teens and below zero around here.

Hey D! Ok---so I just was given an old (and working!!) sewing machine, and your yellow earwarmers (without the pleats) was my first project with the sewing machine!...This is so cute! But with a new sewing machine it kept jamming...ah! It was so frustrating! I ended up using hot glue and hand stitching a cute little band to the edges! Can you do a tutorial of a no-sew ear warmer project? I check your blog a ton! It'd be great to have a how-to, with or without a sewing mating! Thanks!!!

Too bad I look like an idiot in any type of headband. Really short hair is bad for that... but nevertheless, I love this idea.

Did you do a button closure on this ear warmer? Or is it a continuous band?
