Flower hairbows


While Ella was recovering from her tonsilectomy, we spent A LOT of time on the couch watching Tinkerbell.  The first 7 times we watched it I was really into it with her.  It was fun to sit and hold her and cuddle.  After the 10th viewing (and the fact that I literally had a dream about an intense need to find acorns.  It was like my life depended on finding acorns on the ISU Quad.  That and Ella was sad and sick enough to not have energy to play and run around, but well enough to not want to cuddle) I realized I needed a project.  Ta-Da, I blog surfed and came up with these cute fabric flower hairbows.  This is only one of the types I made.  (My favorite pattern)  I made hairbows for my girls (me), my nieces and neighbors.  When she was finally better, it was time to move on, but we sure have some cute hair accessories.
