Here is the pattern I am so sorry this post is so long but there is a lot of information. If you have any questions or if something doesn’t make sense please let me know!
Thank you pretty much for this complete tutorial, hope it's easy as it seems. We are 3 college girls from Mexico, who loves Disney, so we have just a few minnie mouse ears from Disneyland. This tutorial help us so much, we'll put in practice. Again, thank you !!
Are the headbands you got from Amazon bigger than the ones used by Disney? My problem is that the ones from Disney squeeze my head and I can't wear them longer than to take a quick picture. Thank you for the great tutorial.
Diana, I have the same problem and honestly it is just trial and error as to the size of the headband. If I were you I would use a headband you already own that doesn't hurt your head. If that is an option.
Love this!!!! I mistakenly ordered 1/2" Headbands from Amazon and they are def not wide enough!!! Can you tell me which headbands you ordered? Are they satin covered and do you get the ones with teeth? Thank you so much!!!
Thank you for sharing - I am so excited to make these! I was just wondering if the ears stay up well or if they flop around. I have made ears with fabric over cardboard and they were very sturdy, so I'm wondering how these will be once they're all put together.
Thank you for making this tutorial! I'm planning a girls' trip to Disneyland soon and I'm wondering how many pairs of ears do you think you could make from one runner? I don't want to order the wrong number!
If you placed the pattern pieces carefully I would say maybe 3 per runner. I would order an extra runner just to be safe. If you order from Amazon you can always return it if you dont use it.
Thank you for this tutorial! I'm trying to make several pairs of ears at once for a girls trip. About how many do you think you could get out of each runner?
I love this tutorial! I have seen/read so many. This is nice and detailed. Quick question, pardon my ignorance but when you talk about stiff interfacing...which kind? I know nothing about it and there are so many types and weights! Also, once put inside the ears you mention 'opening it'? So that means the filling will go inside the interfacing and not between the interfacing and the fabric correct?
Hello, I apologize for the confusion let me see if I can answer your questions. As far as interfacing goes your right, it comes in various weights and stiffness, I used a very stiff interfacing. I dont want to sound like I am not answering your question but the best thing to do is ask the sales associate at the fabric store to help you find a fairly stiff interfacing. It is hard to explain without being able to see and feel the different weights of interfacing. This Amazon link might help https://amzn.to/2KUkVok . When I mentioned "opening" the interfacing I was referring to unfolding the interfacing as I had to fold it in thirds to get it to fit through the small opening left in the ear. You are correct the filling/stuffing goes in between the interfacing and the inside/back of the sequin fabric. I put batting on both sides of the interfacing. I just kept putting small amounts inside until I liked the way it looked. Again I apologize for all the confusion. If this does not answer your questions please let me know!
