I love collars. They can embellish all kind of clothes and they are often easily made-at least if you try this nice and easy version.
It is very easy to sew a ruffle collar with a bow. You can renew many garments with a new collar. Cool collars brightens up any old boring garment.
All you need is a small piece of leftover fabric and a silk ribbon.
My collar consists of a piece of fabric that is 140 cm long and 20 cm wide. You need about 1 meter of silk ribbon. Try it out, it depends on how long ribbons you prefer.
Fold the collar in the middle and then sew it together with the wrong sides up. You have to leave it open about 15 cm in the middle of the back to be able to turn it right. You must also leave open about 2.5 cm in each side of the upper edges to be able to thread a ribbon. I you want to, you can make rounded edges in the front.
Turn the collar to the right side and sew the open sides together with a narrow seam. Sew a channel about 2.5 cm wide at the top, thread a silk ribbon through the channel and your collar is ready!
Why don´t you make several collars to adorn any garment? Cool collars really embellish you and your clothes!
