Batik Woven Wristlets
I've been wanting to make some of these bags for a long time. I can't wait to walk into one of my favorite quilt shops with one of these in tow! I used batik fabric that I cut into strips. I finished the edges and selected strips for the warp and weft. I then wove and stitched them together for stability. It was a process that I imagined and was able to pull off. It's a great way to use many fabric scraps or you could use one very busy piece of batik! After I wove the fabric section, I made the wristlets.

About Me
- wearartbyjulie
- I enjoy silversmithing, making jewelry, beads and working with paracord. I sculpt in polymer clay and desert themes are my favorite. I'm always looking for ways to incorporate the beauty of nature into my work. My work has been published in a large book called "1000 Beads," Lark Jewelry and Beading, 2014. I have sold beads through the Glendale Bead Museum Shop, a gallery in Tucson and www.wearartbyjulie.etsy.com. I'm an artist currently showing my jewelry at the Shemer Art Center in Phoenix, AZ.
