Burn the ends of the ribbon with a lighter. If you don't have one, any kind of fire (or a lit match) will do. Try not to burn the ribbon or leave black marks on it.

Form a loop with the ribbon and hold down where the ends meet.

Use the needle and thread and sew down the middle of the (almost completed) bow. Pull it tight so the ribbon forms a bow shape.

Wind your leftover thread around the middle of the bow to create the bow shape.
