Fabric Beads


I always like to take a sewing project along with me when I travel, something small and portable.  This trip I spent some time before I left cutting fabric for beads and fusing interfacing onto the strips. I was inspired by a tutorial I bought from Victoria Gertenbach of the Silly Bodilly blog on her Etsy shop - www.victoriagertenbach.etsy.com 

The beads and necklace above are made from silk dupioni fabric.  And then it started to mushroom, what can I use for a fabric bead next?  These beautiful beads were cut from some fabric I used to make a tunic.





Then my collection of labels came in



And why not some denim beads?
