How to make a big fabric bow??

Does anyone know how to make one? It seems simple enough but I have never tried and I would love to have some bows, to put on clothing and such, anyone?

you just make a strip of fabric sew it and fold it inside out the lay it so it makes a loop. Then make a smaller strip and wrap it around the middle so it looks like a bow.

I would just fold one in half so i didn't have to do much work and I only had one seam. But yea you could do that

Yeah, I think Magical Pony means that, because you gotta have another bit for the tying!

What are you using the bow for?
