"Mimkhatah" Style Headcovering Sewing Tutorial

First, you will need a 20"x14" rectangle of the material of your choice, and a 46" length of the trim of your choice. (Fabrics that are not too stiff work best.)



1 - Hem the edges:

2 - Gather the sides:

3 - Pin on the trim...

(Make sure it is centered!)



Then sew it!



Tah-Dah!










Not so bad. :-)
