Make a Belt

By Rain Blanken, About.com Guide

Fold in the ends of the belt a 1/2" and press with your iron. Before you press, test a small portion of the fabric to be sure that the fabric you are using won't burn under the iron.

For fabrics that may be sensitive to heat (synthetic fibers like vinyls and plastics) try laying a clean towel between the iron and the fabric while you press.

Next, we will stitch the top and bottom
