Those big bandanna cuff bracelets you see on men and women are easy to make. You can create a bandanna bracelet in five minutes, and have a great casual look. In fact, you can use any handkerchief or cloth square to make a fashionable fabric cuff for your wrist.

When your bandanna bracelet becomes soiled, you can pop it in the washer, and start fresh the next time you want to wear it. Spread your bandanna out on a flat surface. Fold the bandanna in half as a triangle.

Start with the tip of the triangle and begin making tight folds lengthwise. You should end up with a long narrow strip of folded fabric. Leave an inch of the folded bandanna loose on the underside of your wrist, and wrap the rest of it tightly around your wrist again and again until there is just enough left on the end to tie to the loose strip on the other end.

Tie the ends together in a knot and poke the tails inside the fabric cuff. More.

Bandana quilts have been a quilter's staple for some time. The colorful, pieced together look of many bandanas sewn into a quilted pattern is always a treat to see. Whether making these artistic quilts for family or friends, these are heirloom items that will be treasured for years.

Acquire a sufficient number of bandanas for the project size. Cut the bandanas into the size and shape called for in the pattern. Double the number of bandanas if this will be a reversible bandana quilt.

Cut an equal number of quilt backing material the same size as the bandanas. Sew the bandanas together, either seam allowance side out for a more ragged look or together right side in for a finished appearance. Use a walking foot on the sewing machine to better feed the material through the sewing process.

This will help keep the layers from shifting. Place a bandana right side down on a table. Put a piece of the backing material down on top of that.

Finish by placing a final bandana right side up on top ... more.
