Article: Choose a 1.5-inch (3.8 cm) width for your first bow. Cut the end of the ribbon straight with a pair of fabric scissors. A 22-inch length will make approximately a 3.5-inch (9 cm) bow. A 28-inch length will make a 4-inch (10 cm) bow. They should each be 4 inches (10 cm) long. This thicker form of thread will make a sturdier stitch. Double knot the floss at the end of a 6-inch (15 cm) length of thread. Keep the rest of the materials close at hand. Take a lighter and hold the flame against the very edge of the ribbon where you cut it off the spool. Move the lighter along the edge so it will not fray.
