Place your headband flat, and measure 5” from the left side. Now place your heart flat onto the headband. With loose end and tapestry needle, proceed to sewing the heart onto the headband, placing a stitch all around the heart to secure it onto the headband. When you are satisfied with your stitching, tie a knot at the back of project, and fasten off. Tidy up all loose ends.
