\n

STEP 1: Take and record measurements<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Begin by measuring the collar, excluding the buckle: Here, the collar is a total of 41 cm long. Without the buckle, it is 34 cm long.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\"\"\/<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

\u200d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

To find the dimensions of your square,<\/strong> measure it without the buckle and subtract 4 cm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

*NB: These 4 cm correspond to the width of the edges that we will sew in the next step.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

On your fabric, draw a square corresponding to the measurements taken above and cut it out. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u200d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\"\"\/
In our example, we will therefore be 34cm – 4cm* = <\/em>30cm<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

\u200d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

STEP\u00a02: Make an edge to hem the bandana.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Fold the square <\/strong>back on itself to form a triangle, as in the photo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Cut the two acute angles<\/strong> at right angles. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

To find out how far to cut, take the measurement of the widest part of your collar. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\"\"\/
In our case, the widest part of the collar is 2.5 cm and we take 0.5 cm for a safety margin<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Tip: a brief ironing will help your fabric to be positioned correctly<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Remove the fabric, and we will now make the hems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

To do this, just fold 1 cm of the fabric over itself twice<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\"\"\/<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

\u200d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Attach sewing pins to the edges to secure them in place and sow the edges. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\"\"\/<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

You have completed this step, congratulations!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u200d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

STEP\u00a03: Sew your bandana\u00a0<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Open and turn <\/strong>and fold your fabric so that it forms a triangle again.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\"\"\/<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Place several sewing pins<\/strong> along your future edge so the fabric doesn’t move when you sew. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Tip: remember to iron briefly again to position the fabric properly
<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u200d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

All you have to do now is sew the edges<\/strong>. We used a sewing machine, but you can do it by hand very well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

When you’re done, remove the sewing pins and turn your bandana the right way around. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u200d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

To put the fabric back in the “right” direction<\/strong>, all you have to do is pass your bandana through one of the holes at the ends.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\"\"\/<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

\u200d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

You’ve done the hard part, you can be proud of yourself!<\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u200d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

STEP\u00a04: Finishing touches\u00a0<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

For a more finished look, we chose to sew finishing edges all around the bandana, but it is not mandatory!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\"\"\/<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

\u200d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

STEP\u00a05: Impress!<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Now that your furry friend’s bandana is finished, all you need to do is put it on his\/her collar and take lots of photos of your stylish dog<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Don’t hesitate to send us photos of your furry friends with their bandana! <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Happy DIY. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
