Creative Life Week 40 - Christmas Headscarf

Am now into week 40 in my creative life and as predicted sewing will be taking over. A few more weeks and my creative life would be over. Am not going to say at this time whether I would be continuing my creative journey next year.

Well, this time I decided to make a headscarf. I have too many fabric scraps am not really sure what to do with them. A donor for my charity gave me about a dozen headscarves she made and when I saw them I thought they would be a perfect idea for my fabric scraps. Even the small scraps I can patch them together so I can come up with triangles. So here are the scarfs I made tonight. Two of them are made from a vintage fat quarter fabric and the other two are Christmas fabrics. I also have lots of Christmas fabrics some of them I bought about 10 years in the US while holidaying. Here is an image of the scarves I did. They measure about 8" x 16". They are reversible as the fabric I used for the front is the same fabric I used for the back.
I think I would make more of the Christmas headscarf, start a craze of wearing headscarf on Christmas Day made out of Christmas fabrics. I think it would be a great idea to be wearing one especially if it is going to be a very hot day and I think it would be a great way of raising funds. Yes, I think that is what I will do. Watch for these items in my store very soon.
