Description:

this is an international swap,

make 1 practice tribal style tassel belt out of yarn and send to one partner!

by practice i mean it doesnt have to be overly fancy, i have a beautiful braided yarn belt with hanging tassels.thats it! perfcet for layering or using when practicing....

as an example, mine the main belt part is braided wool yarn only, no fabric...and the tassels are similar to the image above...hanged in a graduated fashion, longer in the back...shorter in the front. (hang your as you feel so inclined to design, they can be all short and even, long.whatever)i will try to get a good picture and post it...

you can however...depending on your sewing skills and supplies at home, make them as fancy as you feel capable....no requests for colors, i like the element of suprise when swapping sometimes.....senders choice....

easy peasy.........

questions comments...

post em below or contact me:)))

dont flake and send something beautiful!!!

What about hip measurements? Just so the belts we make fit properly :)

threesweetpeas 03/ 3/2010 #

yeah, i guess we could do that....but lets not hold it against our partner if its not EXACT, you know what i mean......but yes in general its a good idea:)))

thanks

threesweetpeas 03/ 3/2010 #

lets actually put a minimum measurment then......email it to your partner.........for example...some yarn belts can be much longer that expected so the yarn will bow tie in the center, but of course measurement IS important for the tassels.i agree........if you are brave enough to add fabric then a measurement is VERY important............

Yeah I have quite wide hips, and I would really like to be able to use it ;)

how is everyone doing? added a few extra days to send!

LadyBathory 03/12/2010 #

Haven't started yet, still in the sketching and planning stages :)

wow1 i just wanted to comment on the experience thus far... though my design is simple, it is VERY time consuming and more difficult that i had originally anticipated,

it is however turning out amazing! i like that i am able to make the whole thing basically adjustable.and still look good!

it is somehow a very meditative process and i imagine the tribal folk winding and making tassels.how perfect they are......it takes alot of attention to detail....

overal i am totally enjoying the process alot! i will make another for myself, originally i was going to sell a few on etsy but time time, havent the time.

i will post a picture later today in the group,

i am wondering if everyone could do the same, finished or in progress. even a a cell phone picture is fine:)

i would love to see what everybody is coming up with!

blessed be!!! noel

I have actually already taken a picture of the belt in the making, but wouldn't kind of ruin the surprise?

Tassel belt seems very stylish, it will go with many outfits. I was looking for crocodile belt and found this one instead. It is a very fascinating one and is handmade.

In addition to that, taking your DMV test in English is not mandatory in the U.S. - many states have a list of approved alternative languages and officially allow you to take a written DMV test in the language other than English. comprare patente

Custom Mattress https://shop.kogler-usa.com/products/road-cloud-rv-mattress This is different in Europe, were the most important purchase a person can make is considered to be their mattress. It makes sense that because we spend a long time on our beds and mattresses that whatever we decide to buy is just right. After all, who does not want a restful, comfortable night's sleep which is directly connected to having a healthy mind and body?
