Thanks so much 🤗
Thank you for your fantastic video, You were so detail and made look so simple and thanks for the pattern sizes also. Again a Big Thank You.
You’re welcome babe! So glad you enjoyed it 😍
I have been making your Bandanas for the last couple of years for my son’s Springer Spaniels. Oh how they love them ❣️🌻 Thank you so much . I like your pattern and instructions so much they’re the best❣️☺️😘
Awww! I love that! Thanks so much for watching. I’m glad you liked it!
Thank you for this tutorial i will be visiting family this summer and I will make these for the many dogs that I will be visiting. I might even put the names on them.
That’s a great idea! I’m sure they will be super cute!
Great video
Thanks so
Much!
I've watched more of thee bandana videos than I care to admittedly this evening. Yours is, by far, the best. I love your pattern. I like that you fold a piece down for the casing rather than just stitching across. I love the freezer paper. Great job. Thks
Well that’s one hell of a compliment! Thank you Kimberly! I’m so glad you like it 😁
Yeah 👍 your right 👍
😊 Thanks so much for the bandana tutorial, clear and easy instructions. 🤩
You are so welcome!
OMG - I absolutely loved your tutorial. I especially love the way the bandanna folds. What a great tutorial!!
Thank you so much Susan!!! So glad you like it!
This is Mrs Pete. Thank you for the video. Love that you included all the dimensions. Found a bunch of clearance dog fabric and plan to make a bunch for the shelters in my area. Plus our own four legged child. Thank you again
Awwwww what a great idea!!!! Every summer my older daycare kids would make something to donate to our local SPCA. We’ve made beds, toy and treats but it never occurred to me to make bandanas! One summer we even came home with a puppy lol that’s Maggie (Mags) in the pic ❤️❤️❤️ You are AWESOME Mrs.Pete!
Thank you for that video I will definitely be trying this.
Thanks so much! I hope you like it!
Great tutorial thank you so much 😊

Mary, Thank You for this great tutorial, it was easy to follow. You give very exact instruction, you don't go too fast and show every step. I just subscribed and I'm looking forward to seeing what else you can walk me through. I can't wait to make these for my Gran-dogs 😂

I like the added durability to the collar slip. Going to try this one tomorrow with a top stitch.
If your dogs are anything like mine durability is IMPORTANT lol! I hope it works out well for you 😁
Excellent tutorial!!
Thanks so much! I’m glad you liked it 🤗

Thank you, Mary. Great video.
You’re welcome Pamela thanks for watching!
I take my chopsticks with me from the buffet to make make my corner out.
Best free sewing tool ever lol
I’m very new at sewing and I want to make some bananas for my puppy I’ve watched tons of videos and I can’t even finish them because I get so confused and frustrated... This video I watched to the end you’re amazing at teaching and it looks so much easier than the other videos! Well done! :)
Thanks so much Tara! I’m so happy you like it 🥰
Thank you! Best bandana video I've seen. Simple and clean directions and love your freezer wrap tip for patterns!
Thank you so much! And yes freezer paper is the best! I use if for everything!
I have been looking for a video like this forever! I use freezer paper for just about all of my simple patterns like this.
Freezer paper is the best! And you can reuse it so many times!
How did I miss this video?!?! Tooooo the sewing roooom IIIII goooooooo!
lol right! it’s probably my favorite pattern on the channel where have u been lady lol
I agree with the upper comment. This was the easiest video to make the scarf. Really enjoyed it!!
Thanks so much! I’m glad you liked it!
thank you Mary - your instructions were easy to follow and end product is adorable. Made two yesterday and both turned out darling.
Yay! Thanks Susan so glad you liked it!
Thank you so much! This is the best pattern and tutorial I have found, made 2 so far love them!
You’re welcome Sheila! So glad you like the pattern 🥰
Oh this is so cute!!! We have a little 4 lb tiny toy poodle. She will be sporting tiny bandanas shortly!!!! So cute. Thanks so much for sharing. I always enjoy your videos.
MistyDiane lol we have a 5 lb chihuahua! She’s the boss! I’m sure the small will fit perfectly! If you have time tag me in a pic on Instagram or post on my Facebook I’d LOVE TO SEE!
You are my go to gal when I want to brush up on something. You have a pleasant voice and are down to earth. Just thought I'd let you know I'm enjoying and recommend you to others.
Thank you so much Linda. I really enjoy teaching and helping others. Thank you so much for referring people to my channel. It’s been very exciting to watch it grow and people like you are what makes that happen. I’ve always thought I had a annoying sounding voice 🤣🤣🤣
The best tutorial for dog bandanas. My favorite. Thanks.
Thanks so much Angelica! There are definitely some over complicated tutorials out there… I’m like dude it’s two triangles lol shouldn’t take more than few min 🤣
Thank you so much. Love your tutorial on these. I will be making some. 😊
Thanks so much! I hope they come out great!
I can't wait to try these bandanas. I have alot of mask material left over I have been looking for something cute to use it on Thank you for posting. Stay safe
Yes that’s perfect! I’ve found that a lot if the popular mask fabrics is equally popular in dog Bandanas. You should also check out the baby bibs video 😉
Thank you for sharing this, i also have watched many videos on making these and yours was by far the easiest and well explained. I really thank you for sharing this!
You’re so welcome Sandy! I’m happy it was easy for you 😁
Thank you so much for sharing your video. Your directions were very easy to understand. And thanks for the patterns. A lot of people don’t like to share information or trade secrets😅 So thanks🥰
And your baby sounded cute👶🏻
So glad you like it Shirley! Thank you for the kind words! And yes I agree! I don’t see the point in trying to teach a skill if your not willing to share the details lol
Fyi..I like your directions the best. ♥️
thanks so much Susan! I try to keep things simple 😉
I absolutely love this. Thank you so much. I saw other videos, and they where so time consuming and had an elastic band, that I really wasn't a fan of . Definitely live the freezer paper idea too.
You so very welcome! And I agree! A dog bandanna is like the easiest thing in the world to make I don’t understand why people over complicate things lol
I agree with Kimberly. Pleasant voice helps too.
Thanks so much Sabina! 🤗
The Best Video I've seen so far! Thank you for also sharing your Bandana Patterns, I'm a visual learner, I can't read a pattern at all. I also appreciate the step by step instructions. I can't wait to see what other videos you have in store for me. Thanks Again.
Keep Crafting!!
Thanks so much! I’m the same with patterns that’s why I’ve always just made my own lol if you check out my main page there lots more to see 😉
Thank you so much! Perfect video and little dude in the background made it better. I've been making donation masks for our local Jr Humane Society for adoption day and now I can add matching bandanas , woo hoo!
Lol thanks so much Marty! They do love to photo bomb 🤣
And great work on the donations!!!
Thanks . Excellent video and much appreciated to see the sizes so clearly explained. Just bought a machine today so a total newby. P.s. cutest baby 👶 sounds.
Oh boy very exciting your first machine!!! 🤗 CONGRATULATIONS! I have a couple good videos on how to clean your machine, my favorite sewing tools and choosing needles which are great info for beginners! Not my most popular videos but still good info to know 😉 the dog bandanna is a perfect beginner project.
Thank you for this pattern! Can’t wait to try it. Others I have tried come out lopsided (most likely user error) and you make yours look so easy! Thank you
In my opinion a lot of sewing patterns tend to be over technical or include steps that a really unnecessary for something this simple. I’m dislexic so reading patterns is her for me… I tend to just figure stuff out on my own and try to simplify from there.
@@MaryMakes very much appreciated! My freezer paper should be in any day now.
Hot dog! I'm gonna make some. In fact I bought some fat quarters tye dye prints today! Yay
Awwww tie dye bandannas would be super cute!!!
These are great! If you would cut using the fold it would be faster and easier! Just thought you'd like to know !
Thanks Pete! I should mention the reason the bandanna is designed using the fold is for added stability. If you were to simply leave an opening across the top seam that seam would recieve a lot of stress and pulling and would tear much easier. You would also have to tuck under and finish off the raw edge which can actually be more time consuming and like I said significantly less sturdy. Everything I make is made to last 😉
@@MaryMakes but you didn't use the fold, you laid it out with out the fold. I'm confused, I apologize!
I can’t seem to find pattern I know I’m missing something you have a great teaching video very easy to understand thanks
Thanks so much Debra. Did you mean on Etsy or the portion of the video about pattern making?
Gracias por los moldes con las medidas muy bonita la bandana
¡eres bienvenido! ¡Qué bueno que te gustaron!
Thank you for adding the measurements of all the sizes & patterns. My family has a Yorkie Brody my furbaby, Bassett Hound Astrid my furbaby niece & winnie Canela my furbaby sister in law🦋🙏💚🥰🌻*;0)
You are very welcome! Now all your fur babies can look super cute!!!
I loved this video so informative thank you. Do
You have a video how to make a bandana that ties around the neck for a bulldog or french bulldog? Can’t seem to find a video anywhere?
Hi Dotty sorry for the late reply I missed your comment. I don’t have a tutorial for it but you could easily use this same tutorial and just skip a sash through the opening and tie it that way. You could stitch it in on the ends as well if you prefer it that way. Hope this helps!
... excellent presentation 👍👍... out of curiosity, what type of fabric do you prefer for making the bandana's? ... and, I just subscribed to your channel ✌✌
Thanks so much! I usually prefer quilter weight cotton!
I love your video. Can fleece be used to make the bandanas instead of cotton?
Thanks Mimi! Yes fleece can be used just be aware that it’s going to be a little bulkier to work with. And if you live in an area like me with bad pollen this time of year it may collect more dirt because it’s fuzzy. 🙂
THANK YOU. I bought some material to make my dogs matching vacation bandanas... Vacation starts tomorrow and have I made the bandanas? No I have not. Pretty sure I can whip two of these up though!
You can do it!!!
And vacation bandannas what an adorable idea I love it! This pattern is so easy honestly you could practically hand sew it in the car on the way there. Hope you have a great trip!
Hi. Thx for this lesson! We’re wanting the long pointed part to stay on our dog’s back. How do we do this!
You’re welcome! As for the direction of the bandanna you could potentially seeing the folder sleeve narrower so it doesn’t move as freely around the collar.
Thank you for sharing. I love your tutorials. I had a question about your masks. How much do you sell those for?
Thanks Ness! I sell the masks for $10 or 3 for $25. Which means if they buy 5 they get 1 free. If you offer a little deal like that you will often sell more in the long run 😉
Mary Makes Masks & More very true. I’m going to try that thank you so much for replying so quickly. Here in west Texas it’s been bad. I don’t want to go out much but will try to sell some online somehow.
Hi Mary, I just learned how to make the doggie bandannas from your excellent video. I'm wondering if you could ever do a video on the Carols Zoo bear. There's a video on it but it goes so fast that I can't follow it and I would love to learn how to make the bear to give to my 4 granddaughters. You take your time and show every step of the way. I know you are super busy and may not be able to do this but I had to ask. Thankyou 🥰🥰
Hi Patricia! Thank you so much for the kind words. I’ve never made bears before but I’ll take a look. can’t make any promises in the short term with moving and all but I’m always looking for fun new projects. Also I just saw your comment about the freezer paper. For some reason I can’t seem to link to that thread directly. Did you order the meat hugger brand from the link below the video? It should be poly coated on one side. i just ordered a roll last month. I would recommend returning it. it’s very easy you can take it to Khols or UPS and they will ship it back for free. Please let me know if it was my link that led you to an incorrect product sometimes that happens on Amazon when the seller updates a listing.
here’s the link to the brand I use amzn.to/2WgsIDI
@@MaryMakes Hi Mary, you're very kind for taking the time to get back to me and I appreciate that. I went on my Amazon orders and it was my fault because I didn't order the poly coated one. So I thought I'll use it anyway and cut out the pattern for the adult bib and made my first one this morning. I love it and I love how great your instructions are. I checked out more of your tutorials and YOU ARE A VERY SMART, STRONG, WOMAN who can do anything and will meet that right guy someday and if not... you're better off!! ❤️❤️
Hi, question can you reuse the freezer paper after you iron over it! Thanks
Hi Bernice to answer your question YES you absolutely can! Some brands last longer than others but for the. Most part you should be able to reuse your pattern many times before it looses its stick.
Thank you for this video. What kind of sewing machine do you have?
Sorry I missed your comment. I see on a Janome 6600 Professional Short Arm
Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial. I have been looking for a dog bandana that would be different to what everyone else is making. I’m planning on selling these at craft shows this year, with your experience, how many of each size did you make to sell at your booth? Thank you in advance!
Hi Emma. So glad you like it! I usually do 4-6 in each size. I’ve sold only a few tiny ones but all of the other sizes sell well!
Good luck at your show! I work a lot of brewfests and these always do well there.
Sounds good. Will stick with that ratio. I appreciate your transparency. Subscribed to your channel to follow you. Have a wonderful day.
Great video. Loved your tips. Question: how far do you fold down for loop for collar or does it matter? Thanks again.
Thanks so much! The pattern is designed so the top rectangular section is folded down in half to meet the triangular area. I hope that makes sense.
If you scroll to the 10:00 mark you can see what I mean by folding the top down.
Loved Loved your tutorial. My brother has a great Dane. I am making the kids' dogs all one and can't leave Homie out of the mix. Now, would the large pattern work for him ? He is so, sooo big.
I used my neighbors very large pit bull for the sizing. It will fit his collar width just fine. It is fine for a Great Dane it will just be a smaller look than the other dogs. But if you wanted a bigger bandanna you could always add an inch or so around the sides and the triangle… you don’t need to add any extra along the top long edge. Just the two short sides and down to the point.
Oh and thank you! So glad you liked it! 🤗
@Mary Makes Masks & More Thank you so much. I will make it longer. Don't want him looking different. Thank you so much!!
I was able to do this because of you.. thank you.. how do you price or go about pricing?
You’re welcome! I usually sell them for $10. And sometimes I’ll do a special like 2/$15 or 3/$25 since lots of people have multiple dogs
How did you make the scrap? Thanks so much.
I’m sorry I don’t understand your question? Are you asking for measurements?
How wide is the casing for the collar on the medium size?
It should be approx 2in once folded over 😁
So if I do the same exact template with your measurements that you created. Once I fold the crease for a medium bandana will my collar automatically fit ? or do I have to measure the length from the collar and sew to the measurements of the collar ? Some videos I’ve seen on making a bandana has been to complicated to do and they don’t really explain as well as you did.
Can you make another bandana video please on using the same exact pattern to see what it looks like once the crease is folded. If you have time if not it’s alright.
Where do you usually sell your bandanas at ? Like at a farmers market or ?
Thank you for your video your a pro at making bandanas 💯!
Hi Ortiz... as long as you choose the bandanna size that you think will fit your dog best you should not have to make an adjustments to the pattern size. Any standard collar will fit through the opening. If you scroll to 9:08 in the video you can see how the fold should be made by folding the top down just so the top corners meet the top of the triangle. At 10:03 you can see how I just fold the top part of the pattern in half and then pin it in place and tack it down with a single long stitch down the long side. You can see what it looks like after the crease is complete at 11:15 Hope this helps!
@@MaryMakes Thank You. Yes Very helpful. Looking forward to many more videos.
Great tutorial!!!!🎉 Thank you! Quick question, is the fold supposed to be the back of the bandana;meaning the side we don’t see?
It’s reversible so you can wear it on either side. One side would be a solid print and the other side would have two fabrics to showoff 😉
@@MaryMakes thank you!!!!💕
Is that a permanent marker you used to mark on top of that freezer paper and does the iron make it come off
Yes it’s a sharpie and now I’ve never had an issue with that. I use sharpie, ball point pens and pencils with freezer paper all the time.
Hi I love your video and I love how the bandanas turn out they're so cute. I'm having my first ever craft fair in which I'm going to be selling these, how many do you take when you're going to do a craft fair to sell these? I'm going to do your $10 idea cuz I think that's fair.
Hi Penny! When it comes to craft shows the two largest sizes are gonna be you biggest sellers. The tiny ones ( chihuahua size) sell the least. I’ve found that the most popular prints are anything seasonal like fall/Christmas etc (especially sunflowers and buffalo checks) also pop culture prints like star wars, super hero’s, Harry Potter and nightmare before Christmas are very popular BUT they are more expensive so you make less profit in the long run. Flowers, butterflies, skulls, Patriotic and funnny stuff is also popular AND every time I make one with cannibus it sells immediately lol anyways depending how much time you have and how much money you’re trying to make I’d say you’d want probably want at least 7-10 of the two larger sizes 5-7 of the smaller one and only a few of the extra small maybe like 3-5. So around 30 total to have a good spread. You could also charge $12, $10, $8, $6 for the different sizes if you prefer. I usually pick a few prints and make one or two in each size… some people like their dogs to match 😉 When I display them I like to tie clothes line from one side of my tent to the other and hang them with clothes pins… they look fine laid out on a table too but if it’s windy they will blow away. I also have a laminated sign with my prices and QR codes for Venmo, PayPal and cash app to make it easy. Make sure to chat up your customers about their dogs… explain to them how the collar slips through so they can’t wiggle it off abd also mention they are very sturdy and can go through the washing machine. 😉 People really like that! Good luck! I hope you have good sakes!
@@MaryMakes
Thank you so much!!! These are fun to make!@@MaryMakes
I have a question about the freezer paper: what temp do you recommend for it to stick?
I always keep my iron hot! It should stick easily with a quick press if your iron is set to one of the higher settings.
May I ask how much you charge for each size of bandana? I taught myself how to sew and this looks like a fun project! Thank you for sharing!
Hi Janet... you can DEFINITELY make this! They sell really well and also make great gifts. I charge $10 each regardless of size.
@@MaryMakes thank you so much! I will let you know how I do!
Where do you buy that type of ruler that you used in your demo?
There are links to all the products I use under every video description. This ruler is my favorite. It’s 24x6 and made by omnigrid
Here’s a link for amazon amzn.to/3eR19Y7
Do you cut your bandana shapes on the bias or not? Thanks!
Hi Lisa to answer your question… No I do not. I will cut a bandanna from any scrap I can find. 😁
@@MaryMakes Thanks!! 😀
Super cool! I have many pet parent friends and would love to make these as gifts! What's that plastic thing you use in your left hand to lay on the fabric when you cut? What brand is it? Will you please share the measurements for Small, Large, and XL?
Hi Lori that is an Omni grid ruler they are AWESOME and extremely helpful when cutting fabric. Here’s a link
Omnigrid 6-Inch-by-24-Inch Quilter's Ruler www.amazon.com/dp/B001CE8JKQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_G9G3T8DDQ3NSQC6D6MNK
@@MaryMakes I just ordered the ruler, many million thanks! Can you share the bandanna pattern measurements for small, large and XL???
The measurements are listed at 00:30 the four sizes from largest to smallest are as follows... Large- 14 1/2in across the top, 7in down the sides and 15 1/2in down the center to the point...Medium 12in top, 6 1/2in sides, 13 1/2in down center... Small 9 1/2in top, 4 1/2in sides, 9in down center... XS 6 1/2in top, 2 1/2in sides, 5 1/2in down center.
@@MaryMakes thank you, thank you, thank you!
@@MaryMakes Oh my gosh! I'm sorry, you show all the patterns at the beginning of your tutorial. Super sorry for wasting your time!
How much do you turn down for the casing for the collar?
Hi Karen fold the top flat edge of the bandanna down so it meets the top of the triangle area. For the medium size this should give you approx. 2in of collar.
You can see what I mean at 10:00
Love you video! I have a question. The sizes for large and XL.... ? In the video you gave the same measurements for large and XL.?
Thanks Karen! If you scroll to 1:31 in the video you can see the sizes are different. An xl measures 14 1/2 in across the top, 15 1/2 in down the center line to the point amd 7 inches on the edges. The large size is 12 in across the top, 13 1/2 in down the center and 6 1/2 in on the sides. Hope this helps.
Thanks for getting back to me. Im confused as in the time you quoted you say the large is that size and if you go to 207.... you show the same measurements and call it xl....im needing the largecand xl measurements please
@@karenmacdonald767 I’m sorry Karen but I believe you are incorrect. There is no discrepancy in the video. The measurements listed in the beginning of the video at 1:31 and also again at 2:07 for the extra large size are exactly the same....the extra large is 14 1/2 inches across the top, 15 1/2 inches down the center and 7in on the sides. I’m not sure where the confusion is coming from 🤷🏻♀️ I rewatched the video several times including closed captions and the large size bandanna is never incorrectly labeled with the xl sizes.... at one point I mention the xl bandanna is “great for a larger dog” maybe you misunderstood what I was saying?
@@MaryMakes could you please give me the large measurements, thank you for your help!
@@MaryMakes ok I think I know why i was confused 😂🤣 when you said XL I thought there was 5 sizes..its actually 4x sizes......I love how well you describe the steps! Easy to follow. Thanks!!
Hi Mary, I made 12 of those bananas in different sizes mostly for family but Im thinking it would be great if I could sell some if anyone asks me to make them. I know you said that you change $10 but was that for all sizes?
Good work girl! You’re a bandana pro now lol. I charge $10 for all but the tiny ones I charge $5. And sometimes I’ll do a 3/25 special. The way I figure it I can get quite a few bandanas out of a yard of fabric so as long as I get 3x the price of the fabric in return I’m making a fair profit.
@@MaryMakes Thanks Mary, I love how you teach, I’m 75 and a beginner sew, I have made some tote bags, tissue holders, key chains, etc, little things. I’m hoping to someday have the nerve to make myself a summer top….no confidence 🙁🙁
Question, why such a large opening for collar on the large and medium sizes? Seems really large? Thanks so much for the pattern❤️♥️🥰
Many large dogs wear very thick collars. And high end leather collars can be very bulky. I make these in bulk and I want to make sure they will fit any collar so it’s better to be safe than sorry. Either way an extra inch in the opening won’t effect the overall look but if it bothers you, you can easily fold over another half inch and reduce the diameter.
@@MaryMakes thx for reply♥️. Be well.
Welcome! Thanks for watching!
I noticed that your ruler has a handle on it… where did you buy that!? It’s amazing, I so need one😂
I bought mine at a quilt shop a long time ago and I think it was made by a small company. I haven’t found any more like it in a while. It’s basically a big sticker on an L shaped plastic grip. They do sell similar products in a lot of shops. Many of them use suction cups so you can move it around from ruler to ruler.
Here is a link for one made by Omni that uses suction cups amzn.to/38CvRUr
This one is similar to mine in that it’s a sticker that stays in one place. The shape is different but it would work in the same manner. amzn.to/3OSAk5Z
Question - how many times can you re-iron the freezer paper before you need to make another pattern? Thank you in advance
In my experience quite a few times. I have several patterns I’ve used over and over. I can say some brands stick a little longer than others… possibly they have a slightly thicker layer of coating.
@@MaryMakes thank you! I used your link and purchased a roll last night. 😊 so glad I found your channel
Oh yes I forgot the dimensions were a big help
Where do u usually get ur fabric from?.
Hi Jessica. When possible I prefer to buy from quilt shops. Lots of them sell on Etsy. Two of my favorites are Carolina Cotton Company and Quilting by Rita. If you check out my Fabric Unboxing Videos there’s lots more! If you don’t have access to a quilt shop Hobby Lobby has some very nice trendy designs abs of course Joanns has TONS of great stuff to choose from they also have a huge Black Friday Sale that starts today 🤗 if I hadn’t just spent a fortune on Thanksgiving dinner I’d be there now lol
@@jessicarangel6638 ahhh yes. Hobby Lobby has a limited selection when it comes to novelty prints. Check out Carolinian cotton company, Ritas or Joann they all have a bigger selection
Have you made any bandana's with elastic instead of over the collar? If so would you share the instructions?
Hi Karen. I have not made one with elastic. My dogs take everything off lol I’m sure elastic wouldn’t stand a chance against our chihuahua and her creative undressing moves 🤣 however you could easily adapt this pattern buy purchasing some sturdier elastic like this link…. amzn.to/3my3XOb …. If you slip some sturdy 1in elastic through the opening tucking the raw edges inside and then just run a few nice strong stitches down the open ends of the collar slot to close it off and conceal the raw edges and hold the elastic in place.
The only thing I should mention is I’m not sure how safe elastic is around an animals neck… it might be a strangulation hazard like with a child. You might want to do some research or talk to your vet before you make it just for safety sake. 😉 Also if you do decide to use elastic make sure to use your dogs neck as a guide for how long to cut the elastic so it’s not to tight.
@@MaryMakes thank you so much!
If you don’t mind my asking, how much do you sell them for?
Hi there. I don’t mind at all. I sell them for $10 regardless of size. And they sell very well at that price. Hope this helps.
@@MaryMakes
thank you so much!!!
I have been trying to find the measurements for these... you are awesome!!!!
💕💕💕💕💕💕
@@Msd2163 happy to help!
The material I have is only 12x12 how should I adjust the measurements. I want to make the medium bandana. Apparently math is not my forte😆
Hi Sandy if your trying to get the biggest Bandanna possible out of a 12 x 12 scrap I would just make a simple adjustment to the Medium size which measures 12in X 13.5 x 6.5. I would remove the length from the top edge by cutting your fabric to 12 X 12 x 5. You will still have the same amount of fabric for the triangle you will just lose a little bit of the width in the pocket that your collar slips through. Since the collar area is folded in half this would make it aprox 3/4in more narrow than the original pattern.
One more thing I should mention is if your dog has a very thick collar and you’re worried about losing some of the width in the collar pocket you could always find a scrap of coordinating fabric and simply strict her it to the top of your 12 x 12 piece to give you the extra length needed. I would just create another cute detail. If you don’t have any scraps that you like the look of you can always fold that attached piece on the inside of the collar pocket so no one will really see it. I hope this makes sense lol If not let me know and I will try to clarify.
Either option you chose it’s an easy fix so don’t worry you can use that 12 x 12 piece no problem. I did a similar fix for the backing fabric of my half apron video at the 36:00 min mark here’s a link to the video so you can see what I mean. czcams.com/video/0njakBiQZmc/video.html
@@MaryMakes thank you soooo much for all your help. I've made bandanas for friends and family with your patterns. Like you said they are ridiculously simple! Even for a non sewer like me 😁
Is there anyone here that know the sizes in cm. Thanks. I`m from Denmark so 😞 Have a great day. Hughs Rita.
An inch is approximately 2.5 cm so just multiply. Or you can simply type it in a conversation calculator like this one www.rapidtables.com/convert/length/inch-to-cm.html
How many dog bandanas can you make from 1 yard of fabric?
I’d say around four XL five L six M and lots of S... you could easily get 6 if you mix and match sizes.
Also please note this is assuming you are cutting both the front and back from the same yard.
