Jun. 17th, 2009 09:05 am....I bought this fantastic snake skin (tans/browns) patterned fabric about a week ago. - Stretch fabric too. The only problem is that it is a little on the sheer side.
cheap too.
the problem is I can't decide what to do with it!
I absolutely love it.
The problem is ... too many choices. Initially I was thinking of doing gauntlets & a simple drape that went over one shoulder and went to the hip just to act as a quick costume change so that I could do the first two numbers in it then take 2 seconds to get out of it and make it look like I managed a complete costume change.
Then I was thinking... maybe a ghawazee coat.
Yesterday I was thinking that if I layered it... I could do pants with a panel skirt and that should take care of the too sheer aspect of it... but if it was still too sheer - I could make a pair of flesh coloured shorts for under that.
It's gorgeous fabric. I may go back and buy the rest tomorrow. I bought 3 meters. but there were only 3 more on the bolt. Just after all those months of being frugal I couldn't come home with 6 meters of fabric when I didn't know what I wanted to do with it...
