How do you make a new fedora hat ribbon with bow?

Hi guys, i want to change the grosgrain ribbon on my fedora, I have a 2m lenght of grosgrain ribbon, now can anyone on here tell me how to do it? And also how to make the bow? Or otherwise, if you can send me a link to a step by step way of doing it, that'd be great

If you use the "Search" function, there is quite a few threads about it. But one of the best pictorials is this one:

I found that link very helpful when I tried it. So far, nobody has noticed my amateur work.

Wow, some absolutely stunning work in here! You are all amazing!

I just got a new wool-felt Bailey in Navy because I wanted a blue hat. Only thing is the ribbon is short, and I love the look of the tall ribbons. I don't know the first thing about replacing ribbons, and have never stitched anything in my life. I've tried to search around, but couldn't find too much info about it. This seems like an alright place to ask, does anyone here have any tips for an absolute beginning, trying to customize their fedora?
