Woven Fabric Bracelet

IMG_5161 (480x640)

I am SO excited to show you this!

When you were little did you ever make friendship bracelets with embroidery floss?

Ohmygosh, I did too!!

Well, last week I was messing around with some fabric that I got on clearance for $2/yard. Since I bought it without a specific project in mind, I thought I’d just fiddle around with it & see what I could come up with…

Using the same technique as I did in the 1990’s with embroidery floss, I made this bracelet…

And I LOVE IT!!!!!

Who knew that 21 years later I would remember how to finger weave?!
