I made this for a challenge sponsored by Roc-lon earlier this year. It's made with their multi-purpose cloth. The challenge was to make something with an 8 1/2" x 11" piece so I decided to make a piece of jewelry with it:
The piece they gave us was white so the first thing I did was paint it black. Then I added some foiling and beading. The cuff closes with a magnetic jewelry closure and is about 1 3/4" wide. The multi-purpose cloth takes paint beautifully and is very easy to sew. It's a thick cloth but it has some drape to it and it cuts without fraying. Kelly over at I Have a Notion is now carrying it in her online store if you can't find it in your local fabric store.
Wow, it's beautiful Sue! The Roclon sounds like another fun product! I wonder if it might make a good purse fabric too!
