Braided fabric bowl



Funny story about this bowl...it started out life as a rug.
What I mean is, I was trying to make a braided rug but somehow it started curling upward as I stitched the braids together. Instead of pulling it all out and starting over I punted and made a bowl. I really like the look of it. I may try to starch it so it has more stability or I'll just choose what I store in it very wisely.

I forgot to mention that a good share of the strips of fabric are from my dad's old button down shirts. They were so worn that the only thing they were worth was rags...or a rug gone wrong. :)

  1. I love the way you changed directions instead of getting frustrated and either starting over or putting it aside. It turned out great too.
