it’s possible for you to make it in any size and color you want.
I suggest using fabric with different colors and prints.
The exciting part about using colorful fabrics is that youll never know what pattern will emerge until you finish.
Cut a piece of wire that is 3 inches long.
Fold the ends toward the center, making two loops.
Take a piece of masking tape and wrap the ends together.
Step 2:
Cut your old sheets into 1 12 strips.
it’s possible for you to just cut on one end and rip it towards the other end.
Remove the fray from the strips.
Step 3:
Get two strips of fabric.
Hold one of the strips, fold the end, then cut a hole.
Do the same for the other strip, then insert the strip through the hole of the first piece.
Take the end of the second strip and insert it through its hole on the other end.
Pull until it locks.
Step 4:
Insert the working end through the toothbrush needle.
Fold the working strip across the strip to make a loop, then insert the needle.
Pull the fabric all the way while holding it with your index finger.
Repeat and this time use your ring finger.
Move your fingers and keep repeating the process until there are 6 holes.
Step 5:
Turn it over so the needle is on the left side.
Join the two ends of the holes that you just created.
Line up the end of the other strip with the first hole.
Insert the needle through the first hole, pushing it through underneath the other strip to make a knot.
Repeat the process for the other holes.
The holes will become bigger as you keep going around.
If its too big, make two loops in one hole.
If you run out of fabric, just repeat step 3.
