Wondering what to do with those fabric scraps left over from bigger sewing projects? Sewing your own scrunchies is the perfect solution. It’s a great way of making use of those fabric scraps as well as being the perfect finishing touch to an outfit.
How to Sew a Hair Scrunchie
I’ve cut my fabric to 6″ wide by 30″ long. I’ve also cut a length of 5mm elastic 6″ long. I’ve pinned the end of the elastic to the wrong side of the fabric 3/4 of the way across. I’ve used a zig zag stitch to stitch the elastic in place.
I’ve pressed under about half an inch at the opposite end of the length of fabric.
Then I folded the fabric in half length ways
and stitched along the long edge.
The jumbo sized scrunchies are quite easy to turn right sides out with your fingers. Smaller sizes would need help from a loop turner.
The un-stitched end of the elastic is inserted into the other end of the scrunchie. And the pressed hem pulled over the join. Then a simple line of stitching through the fabric and elastic.

A Little Bit About Me . . .
Hi there! Thank you so much for stopping by my little corner of the interweb. I’m Bridie.
I’ve been crafting since I was toddling around craft shows while my mum sold knitting yarn. She used to buy me a new craft kit to keep me busy. When I grew up I set up my own online craft shop and loved every minute of it. There’s is nothing like the thrill of getting to be one of the first people to see new craft collections. I sold my business to focus on raising my two children.
They’re still young so for now I’m blogging my craft projects and sharing tutorials to inspire you. I love creating handmade cards to show my loved ones how much I care. I scrapbook to preserve precious memories of my kids childhoods. I knit and sew to keep my kids in comfortable, unique clothes they love. I create batch cooked meals to give me more time to craft. And because I’m not currently earning I do all of this on a tiny budget.
I’ll show you all the best ways to craft on a tight budget so you can still create a life you love.
