Category: Sewing

For: Unisex

Style: Traditional, Cute, Rock / Punk, Casual, Classic, Mod, Hipster, Retro / Vintage, Whimsical


Materials

Cotton fabric, vinyl (upholstery type), and plastic hardware.

What was your inspiration?

I was just trying to think of something different to make.

What are you most proud of?

Figuring out how to make my own tabs and finally finding a source for the 2 inch slider (not easy to find)- the only other option was to buy a cheap guitar strap, and use the tabs and hardware.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Choose your fabric carefully since the finished strap is only 2 inches wide -- you don't want to lose a cute design!

Is there a pattern or a tutorial for this? I would love to make one for my Dad!

I'm thinking of making a kit with everything but the fabric -- it would include a tutorial, the 2" hardware which is difficult to find, and the vinyl tabs which can be challenging, and the stabilizer. I think the the user would prefer to choose their own fabric. I'd appreciate your opinion on that idea.
