Hello to everyone on this platform. It’s so good to be here once again and to share with you my amazing work..
So I made this beautiful head piece for myself and I love it so much because its design with Africa/Nigerian Ankara fabric/material. This is totally simple and could be done within an hour or less, so to do this, you’ll need the following item;

A measuring tape
A pair of scissors
Ankara material [approximately half a yard or more] you can use any other material of your choice.
An elastic band and
A sewing machine.

Steps
Using the tape, measure and cut a portion of the material measuring 18inches in the length and 7inches long in the breadth. The smaller pieces will measure 11inches by 3inches and the elastic will be 6inches long.

After cutting the material you have to fold the material and then see it half of an inches. After sewing, you have to turn the piece and ensure that the seam is at the center.
