It's made from a T-shirt. No really it is.
Materials:
* extra-large t-shirt
*9 inch paper plate
*scissors
*fabric pencil/marker
*fabric glue (or if you prefer needle and thread or if you have a sewing machine)
*embellishment (opitional, I used a flower)
You will trace the plate on the shirt using the fabric marker. You need about 8 circles. I used large t-shirt and it had some small writing in the left corner so I only got 6 circles out of the shirt. I also did not trace my plate. I just cut around the plate. No need to worry about super-straight edges on this one. So don't worry about that as you cut. I also cut through both layers so I didn't have to cut 6 times, just 3.
Cut each circle into a spiral shape. Then you will stretch each piece. The edges will curl up.
Put a bit of glue on the end of one piece and attach another. Let them dry. You will repeat this for the remaining pieces so now you will have 4 or in my case, 3 long strips. I did not have any fabric glue, well truth be told I don't know where mine is. My sewing machine was out so I just used a very simple stitch to tack the pieces together. I didn't even worry my thread was orange!
With a scrap tie them together at the half .
You just made a cute scarf. Now you can add flower or something extra if you would like to your new scarf. I added a red flower and asked my favorite girl to model this new creation.
