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 chose 3 different white pin dot cotton fabrics for this medium tail hair bow. The top fabric has white pin dots on red cotton fabric, the bottom bow has white pin dots on white cotton fabric, and the tails are white pin dots on navy blue cotton fabric. I traced my pattern on the back of each fabric and cut them out. Each piece was ironed and then sewn together. I re-ironed each piece for that finished, smooth effect. I folded the fabric in a certain way to form a bow and tied the bow in the center with strong thread. I covered the thread with a strip of the white on white fabric and attached the French barrette clip on the back side of the bow. I secured a cute red, white, and blue button on the center piece of the hair bow for that finished look.
