Weave Away/Crochet WIP

Totally not talking about hair weave. So this is what I have been working on.

I decided to try something new yet different with fabric. I've always liked how weaving looked in baskets. But, I yet to give it a try. So I cut up some stretch denim into strips


As you can see here:



I cut a lot of strips.


So now work with me so you all can see what is this going to be.
No not a basket lol.


Here I laid it out into the weaving order.
Pinning it into place and top stitching over it to keep all the strips in place.



Still wonder hummmm what am I doing.



Here I then cut out the pattern I wanted. Can you tell what it is?




Now you can see what it really was.



See some capris shorts whatever you like to call them lol.



Cute aint it.

I just was trying something new yet different. Liked how this turned out. But, now I would like to give this a try again but, with like 4 or 5 different color denims to make me a short denim skirt. I thought that would look oh so nice.

I did get this idea from watching way to much Project Runway can't wait until the new season starts next month. :)

I did have to put in linning in the inside of that one weaved part to keep from seening my skin though the gaps in between the weaving.

But, this did come out nice. Liked how it turned out.

So what you all think?
