Finish off ears -
Fold the last row in half to form the point of the ear and stitch in place.
Slightly roll outer edges in to form a ridge around the outer edge, stitch in place as you go. Pinch the bottom of the ear in the centre to bring it in slightly, stitch in place.

Stitch ears onto an existing headband or in this case, ears are being directly sewn to a blonde wig.
