My friend called and was looking for help in finding hats/turbans/scarfs for her sister. (she knows i sew)..Only i don't do patterns, i make quilts..I went to walmarts and got the McCalls 4116 head coverings pattern. and tried one. it looks o.k., lots of love went into it..but could be better! anyways, i would love to buy material and make 32 x 32 scarfs, but have no idea how to wrap and tie them. I tried a search, and couldn't find free directions for tying. someone suggested "scrunchees" to go with the scarfs, instead of tying..any ideas on how i can make this womans transition to no hair, a little easier? Thanks, Kim

Thanks Judy..really great site, i have checked it out, and my fav is "cancer sucks" button! i got such a good deal on fabric, beautiful stuff..and got some fabric tie back braids to embellish the head covering. I got a good deal on turbans/head wraps on ebay..for her. you know, she is on assistance, and purchasing chemo head wraps is out of the question for her. so i just thought i would help her out..i hope she will be happy with all the stuff i collected! there should be a recycle group for just the chemo caps! like pass them on as your hair grows back! anyways , thanks for the web site. i will pass this on to my friend to check out for her sister...Kim
