Hi Everyone! I have searched high and low for how to make a bow like this, but have not had any luck in finding a tutorial. Does anyone have instructions or a tutorial they can share? Thank you in advance!!

I could be wrong, but the "tailored bow" looks like a different kind of bow than the one on the card in the link I originally posted... The one on the card in the link I posted iss more gathered in the center. Like it was really tied somehow. :confused:

Just tighten up the center piece to gather it more.
I agree with Kim that it's actually a tied bow because of the way the horizontal strip is pulled in around the bow and is at very slightly different levels where it comes out at the sides of the centre knot.
If you make a "bow easy" type bow with two long ends and then instead of letting them dangle in classic bow style you just persuade them out sideways and stick them to your panel, I think you'd have something that looks like that. There's a video here to show you how to use your fingers instead of buying a tool to make a very neat bow.

HTH!
Thank you, Joanne!!!! I think you are right about it being that kind of bow - glad it's not anything too complicated :lol:
Plus that's an awesome video tutorial, too... had no idea you could make a bow easy type bow without the bow easy! :shock: Thanks again!
