About this Product
Parties and celebrations sparked my creativity to make these lime green multi-dotted cotton fabric pigtail hair bows. Bright orange gems glimmer on the center of each hair bow and will make people smile when they see your little one wearing these bows atop pigtails, braids, or to hold back the sides of their hair. The 1 3/4" alligator clips make for easy placement in the hair. Each hair bow measures 3 1/2" in width.

Meet the Maker
Hello! My name is Jeanette, and I was born and raised on Long Island in New York State. I am a mother of two grown children and a grandmother of one teenage girl, and currently live in upstate New York. I have a passion for crafts. I learned to crochet at 8 years old by my maternal grandmother. I was always making potholders on a loom to give to my mother. At age 14, my grandmother and my mother taught me how to sew. I learned on a very old Singer machine with a foot pedal, but my grandmother gave me a brand new "electric" machine for my 17th birthday. I made clothes for myself, mostly dresses and skirts. At age 22, I even made my own wedding gown. Over the years, I made clothing for both my children, but I eventually stopped sewing for quite a while.
Within the last few years, I returned to using my sewing machine, and I am loving it all over again. This past summer (2023), I began making fabric hair bows. I have been searching to find my crafting niche, and I have discovered that making fabric hair bows is it. Since July, I have made over 150 bows. I have 10 different styles that I sew, some with long tails, some with medium length tails, some with short tails, some with no tails. Each bow is unique because of the fabrics I choose and the types of embellishments I use to enhance the look of each bow. I like to use buttons, gems, charms, lace, and fabric flowers to give my bows that extra something. I truly hope you will search through my products to not only see what I create, but to also be motivated to place an order, which in turn will help children in need.

How it’s Made
I traced my pattern on the back of the lime multi-dot cotton fabric and proceeded to cut out the pieces. I ironed each piece and then sewed them together. I again ironed the pieces so that each bow will have that crisp look. Folding the fabric a certain way and tying it in the center with strong thread formed each bow. The thread was covered with strips of matching fabric, and alligator clips were attached to the back side of the bows. I selected bright orange sparkly gems to place in the center of the front of each bow for that particular party vibe.
