Baseball is a favorite sport among many so why not make this playful hair bow to wear to your next game. It’s perfect for any sports fan or baseball player. You could also change the colors up to support your favorite team. Or make lots of them and than everyone on your team can wear one.

To continue to the next screen press the green “Make” button.
Step two
In the Prepare screen you will see how the color layers will cut on the mat. Each color will cut out on a seperate mat.
Now cut out a piece of glitter vinyl for each layer slightly larger than you will need. If you have several mats you can prepare them now with each color of glitter vinyl or if you have one mat you will need to load the vinyl after each cut.
I recommend cutting out the baseball stitching one or two pieces at a time instead of all four. This is because the fabric may shift too much with the small details.
This is how you want the fabric to look before you load it into the cutting machine. I recommend putting some transfer tape onto your cutting mat first, sticky side up, this will help keep your mat clean. And you will also need to go around the edge of the vinyl with painters tape to hold it in place. And you want the fabric good side down. I used a purple strong grip cutting mat for cutting a heavier fabric such as glitter vinyl.
Press the green “Continue” button to move to the next screen.
Step three
In the make screen you can choose your cut setting, and blade pressure. In this tutorial I used the “Faux leather (Paper thin)” setting.
Now follow the instructions on your screen on which blade to use. Load your mat and press the flashing “C” button on your machine to cut the fabric.
Here you see all the fabric shapes cut out in each color.
Step four
Press the bow shape to make three pleats as shown in the image.
Step five
Wrap the red band around and glue the ends in the back.
Step six
Place the alligator clip under the hair bow band and put a dab of hot glue between the band and the clip and press to hold in place.
Step seven
Place some hot glue between the alligator clip and the bow and gently press in place.
This is how the completed bow will look.
Step Eight
Place a very thin line of hot glue behind the baseball stitches piece and press delicately onto the hair bow.
