Here is a quick and easy tutorial that will make for a great gift or a quick sell for your shop! Thanks for supporting Recaptured Values, let us know what you want to see next!
I’ve been watching your videos for a long time and I’ve been trying to master how to make bows using this technique. I get frustrated because no matter how I tie, the rubber band is still showing. Is there a trick to get that hidden or is that just the way it is. Thank you!
I didn’t even think of that!! I will give that a try. Thank you so much. Do you have a tutorial specifically for using an alligator clip instead of nylon? Another issue I have run into is when I’m trying to insert the alligator clip, I can’t find an exit, just keep running into more fabric.
I’m impressed! I’ve been working with ribbon and glue guns and girrrl NO! Lol! This is so much simpler. Im having a baby girl next month and cannot wait to make all of her bows!
Thank you! I like to use these: bullet knit, liverpool knit, or scuba as they have enough weight for the bow to not be super floppy without needing an interfacing for added stiffness 🤌🏻✨️😉
I absolutely love your tutorials! For years I've been making bows with a glue gun and it's so time consuming and then the glue eventually comes undone etc. So thank you so much for this! Will definitely be using this method 💗💗💗 xx
Hi Bailey! I understand why you use the nylon for the stretch around the head. But would it be possible to use a cotton fabric for the bow that doesn't have stretch? If so, would the measurements change? Thank you!
Hi Bailey, have a question about fabric, can you make one of these bows from double brushed polyester I have a lady wanted a knotted gown with cow print and she's wanting a bow to match so I was wondering how you would go about making one from this fabric or would you do a solid color from bullet or liverpool? Thanks so much for your help. Tammy
I typically do a solid bullet to match like white or black. You could put an interfacing on dbp but it won't tie the same because it essentially makes the fabric less stretchy.
Most knits don't fray, however Liverpool and Bullet knits like used for these bows do tend to get "runs" kinda like with panty hoses when pulled too tightly causing the fabric to superate
I’ve been trying over and over again to make this perfectly. I get the bow itself part just fine but when I wrap the excess around to tie the knot it’s SO chunky and I feel like it looks awful and not right because the knot in the back is so big. How can I fix this?
@@Kristinford you can find them on etsy, I use fabrics universe because they're the most affordable in my opinion. I've also seen shops that sell the fabric strip cut already.
Stretch should always go with the length of the fabric. So here 5" is the width/height and the longer measurement is the length and who the stretch should run.
Hi, what nylon bands do you use? Just wondering if they hold up the bow once it's on the babies head. I bought some but seems like bow it too heavy so falls over with any little movement baby makes. What do you suggest?

@@moriahvanhal1371 as long as it looks good you can clip the rubber band and take it off 😉

Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful - thank you
You're welcome!
This is exactly how I make mine, they look so pretty!
That's Amazing!
Love the clear elastic trick!
Love this video
can you do a video on how you cut your fabric for bows? Do you precut all the strips or just cut as you need?
Thank you! Great job and so easy. What is the best type of fabric for that style bow?
Thank you! I like to use these: bullet knit, liverpool knit, or scuba as they have enough weight for the bow to not be super floppy without needing an interfacing for added stiffness 🤌🏻✨️😉
Where can I buy the bow fabric and what type of material is it ? I’ve looked at the nylons but it’s different
Yeah! Bows 🎀💗 Thank you 😊
No Problem something quick and easy!
Where do you get the nylon fabric

Bullet or jersey

Is this the same size to make for a newborn?
Anyone know where I can buy the bows from

What fabric do you use to keep bows from Fraying ?
Or how do you keep a fabric from fraying ?

where do you purchase the nylon

Hey there! How many bows like this could be made from a strip of fabric that is 5x60?
Do you have to use bullet fabric or would this be possible with cotton fabric?
Can I use cotton if I want?
pleeease do a tutorial on the lowlandkids aspen dress! I've been trying to make it for awhile now 😭
Noted!
What kind of fabric is this?
Bullet knit ❤ liverpool or scuba also works

Is it possible to leave out the nylon band and add an alligator clip? Or is there a different method for clips?
Yes, that works for clip bows. ❤
@@RecapturedValues same process?
@@lorieguesno5563 yes just omit the nylon and then slide alligator clip under a piece if the fabric at end.
@@RecapturedValues thank you!
@@RecapturedValues what alligator clips do you think are best?
What fabric did you use and elastic to hold it all together. This is beautiful. Thank you. Would love to make one for my granddaughter. ❤️❤️
I found the elastic and nylon just wondering about the fabric choices
@@Kristinford Bullet knit or Liverpool fabric are my favorites to use.
@@Kristinford you can find them on etsy, I use fabrics universe because they're the most affordable in my opinion. I've also seen shops that sell the fabric strip cut already.
Where is the cuter from?
You can get at Joann its Olfa brand
which way is the stretch
Stretch should always go with the length of the fabric. So here 5" is the width/height and the longer measurement is the length and who the stretch should run.
