Stop time with an arsenal of fabric watchbands! Don’t waste any time grabbing a variety of awesome fabric designs for yours today! This is an easy way to accessorize for every season, without tiring of your favorite timepiece. I recommend choosing at least 3 fabrics to interchange per season. But…who says you have to stop there?
You will need:
• A dozen or so different fabrics! It is easier to just get cozy and make them all at one time. Afterward, you can congratulate yourself on being a goddess with a needle and enjoy lining them up in your dressing room
• Scissors
• Sewing machine (or needle and thread, if you are indeed a ninja)
Watch out! These fun fabric watch bands will certainly grab attention and copycats! Use velcro for the kiddos.

What to do:
• Cut the fabric into a rectangle, approximately 45cm x 12cm.
• Fold the fabric in half, lengthwise with right sides kissing.
• Stitch using a 1cm allowances and diagonally across the end.
• Leave a space in the center for turning
• Trim seam allowances to 5mm. Turn right side out and sew closed.
• Press fabric prior to attaching to the watch
A simple snap works well if you want to use a certain face with no strap.
