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 April, 2023, I have created over 250 bows. I have 12 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.

As of July, 2024, I am adding headbands to my product listings. I currently have 3 different styles that are made in sizes for adults/teens, children, toddlers, and infants.
Beginning in September, 2024, I added "Bow-Handle" Purses/Totes to my product listings. I am very proud of the design of these bags and absolutely love the fabrics I chose for each one.
How it’s Made
I created this "confetti" inspired hair bow by tracing my pattern on the back of the pink dotted cotton fabric and cut out the pieces. I ironed each piece before I sewed them together. I re-ironed the fabric to give the bow a crisp look and feel. The fabric was folded in a certain way to form the bow and tied at the center with strong thread. I covered the thread with a strip of coordinating fabric and attached a 2 1/4" French barrette clip to the back side of the bow. To accentuate the color pink, I added a pink and white charm that dangles from the center piece.
