Easter Headgear 
will be the fashion must have of the season.

And it going to be THIS:

 Yes. 
The Felt Daffodil -Low to No Sew - Spring HeadBand Deluxe

For this tutorial you will need:

Supplies:
Felt in daffodil colors
  fabric glue
cheap plastic headband


Tools:
Scissors and pinking shears
sewing machine (optional.)
 
Start by cutting out the petals and leaf.
Also cut out a stem piece that is not from the pattern

to wrap your headband.

Glue the straight edges together  and you get this:


Pinch the petal piece together and put a few dabs of the fabric glue
in the center at the folds. My pinched petals look like this:

Add center to the front with another dab of glue:



Now glue and wrap the headband:




Seam up the center of the leaf if you are so inclined:




Glue the leaf across top of the head band:




Glue the two blossoms slightly off on one side of the headband:



Now Go On... Get Your Spring On..
