Hand sewn Ankara bows

I made these bows.

Using this tutorial



I used a back stitch but I guess you could do a running stitch if you wanted to, but the back stitch is the strongest stitch IMNSHO.

These were the needles I used.

You need the huge needle to sew the middle of the bow.

It took about 1.5 hours to hand sew each bow.

Not too shabby for my first attempt at bow making.
