Simple D-ring belt tutorial

I love to make a statement with accessories! So, here is a quick and easy D-Ring Belt tutorial. Measure your model's waist and add about 14-20 inches.

Belt suggestions:

Make it Luxe! Use fur trim, leather or a specialty trim to make it a stand out piece. Add a flower, bow or other adornment to conceal the D-rings  

Notions:

*One set of 3/4” (1.9cm) or 1" (2.5cm) “D” rings

*3/4” (1.9cm) or 1" (2.5cm) Trim

1: Slip your “D” rings onto one side of your belt.

2: Turn your belt over and fold the raw edge 1/4”(.5cm) followed by another 1/4” (.5cm) to conceal the raw edge. Pin in place.

3: With wrong sides together,  fold your edge 1”(2.5cm) over, making sure your “D” rings are enclosed in the fold.  Repin and sew two parallel lines to secure.

4: Fold the opposite raw edge of your belt 1/4”(.5cm) followed by another 1/4” (.5cm) .  Pin in place.

5: With wrong sides together, fold your edge 7”(18cm). Repin your edge and sew very closely to your edge in a “U” formation. With your needle still in the ribbon, lift your presser foot and pivot around the corners.

6: Hand sew a flower, bow or other adornment near the “D” rings to complete your belt.
