This birthday crown is ideal for small children. The crown is very variable in size. The crown can be adjusted to the head circumference of the child by means of straps on the back and "growing" so to speak. If you cut two different fabrics as a crown, you get a turning crown. Perhaps you distinguish between a crown side for boys and one for girls.
The crown is very stable due to an additional used inner fleece (here you can also use a new washcloth or plastercloth made of fleece fabric). Here you will find a step by step guide. Have fun trying out.

Relief in everyday life, targeted promotion of individual children, independent learning and - without any pre-knowledge already usable by the youngest!
Print the template of the crown (you can find it at the end!) and glue both parts together.
For a fabric side a two-part fabric is used, you can also use a monochrome or printed fabric. The fabric piece should have the size of the crown template.
Place the template on the back of the fabric and transfer the outline of the template to the fabric.
With a ballpoint pen, most fabrics do quite well.
You can also paint the sewing line by moving the template. Move the template half an inch from the edge to the inside. You do this all around. Mark the "sewing line".
Cut out the painted crown with the fabric scissors.
A second possibly different color fabric (here: flower motif) is also cut with the template.
In addition, you need a fleece fabric, (e.g. Fleece plastercloths) it also has the same crown shape.
Then you need 4 equally long bands with 20 to 24 cm length.
All crown cuts are now placed on top of each other.
First put down the fleece, on top the motif fabric with the beautiful side up!
Two ribbons are placed on one side. (Look at the marking on the template here.) The ribbons are placed inwards, between the two beautiful sides. Place the monochrome fabric with the beautiful side on the ribbons. Now all three layers of fabric (crown sections) lie on top of each other.
Fix the fabric with a few pins, so nothing slips and you can start sewing. Start at the long straight bottom. Sew the fabric all around on the marking. At the tips you have to stop again and again, leave the needle in the fabric and lift the foot of the sewing machine. Then turn the fabric so that the sewing direction can be continued.
When sewn around, leave open a turning opening of 10cm width.
Cuts off the overhanging fabric at the corners obliquely.
The overhanging material must also be cut short at the tips.
In the "valleys" the overhanging fabric is cut that the fabric can be formed well when turning.
The complete fabric is now rotated through the turning opening. Grabs between both fabric outer sides and pulls the fabrics outwards.
Be careful when turning, so that the seams do not open.
Take a long spoon to help uncloud the roundings.
Ride the spoon into every tip and form it well.
That's what the crown looks like.
You can reshape each tip with a pen from the inside.
The fabric at the turning opening is now neatly laid on each other.
Inserts a pin to fix in the closed turning opening.
Starts at the straight bottom with the sewing of the crown. The turning opening is closed when sewing.
Sews an even edge around the complete crown.
Arriving at the top, leave the needle in the fabric again, raise the foot of the sewing machine, turn the fabric so far until the sewing direction is right again.
At the lower tip the needle is also left in the fabric, the little feet are raised and the fabric is turned back into position.
Go to the end of the crown.
When you arrive at the beginning of the seam, cut off the thread.
Finished is the crown! Both sides can be used as an outside.
With the ribbons you can close the crown as a circle. Adjust it to the head circumference of the child.
Now you have a "co-growing" crown, which can not only be used at the birthday, but also play for role playing, carnival or to the theater.
Another crown with the same outer fabric, but other inner fabric!
Stay creative and have fun with it.
Both templates must be printed.
Prepare the prints and a paper scissors.
Cut out the crown stencils neatly.
On the double line, both crown parts are placed together. Adjust the parts until the outer lines exactly match each other. Then, both parts stick together at the overlapping point.
The crown template is ready. A seam allowance is already included!
The template is only transferred to the fabric. At the outer two markings you can insert and sew the volume, the marking serves only as a clue!
If you want to sew a larger crown, simply extend the crown by painting one more pitch! Try it out.
Have fun sewing!
