How to Make an EASY Elizabethan-Style Ruffle
I'm a visual learner, so when I went looking for a good, easy tutorial on how to make Elizabethan-style 'ruff' collars, I came up quite empty handed. Most were either too dark, unhelpful, or more complicated than I thought it should be. I combined an all-text tutorial (what I could understand) and a tutorial for a different kind of ruffle, and this is the method I got! You will need:
Ribbon (approx. 6 yards for a collar of 1/2 inches high)
Needle
Thread
Scissors
Yard Stick or Measuring Tape
Lighter or Candle
OPTIONAL: Hook and Eyes, snaps, or whatever you preferred notions are. You can also sew on a length of ribbon to tie it shut.
NOTE: The audio for this came out really quiet, so please turn your volume up!
