DIY Chiffon Lace Scarf

I just love getting Goodies in the mail!  
So when this fun package from Wholeport arrived you can imagine my excitement!
Now the BIG question was what was I going to make with all this fun stuff?
First I made this Scarf with the gorgeous flower ruffle I got.
Pin It 
And this adorable ruffle flower headband to match.
I am also working on an embroidered "Bloom Where You are planted" wall hanging!
If you are as in love with the Ruffled Rosette Scarf as I am.. here's your Tutorial!
Ingredients
Fabric 
Lace
Pearl Beads
Sewing Machine

 I started with a big piece of fabric
which I cut into a long strip measuring 44" long x 6" wide
Then I ironed the edges in to make a rolled edge. 
Next I sewed the edges
and made the base for the scarf.
Then I placed my chiffon lace in the middle,
pinned it down,
and sewed it into place.
I left a few inches at the end to finish the edges with some lace.
So I ruffled my lace. 
Then pinned it to the bottom
and sewed it on.
Last I hand sewed two of the flowers onto the bottom and added a pearl bead to the center.  
Viola, my very First handmade scarf!
I am sharing with
