Taken for the Smile on Saturday theme of Fancy Fabrics. I have spent ages faffing around trying to get a shot I am happy with using all different fabrics but this is the best I could manage! The fabric is blurry just in case anyone thought it was out of focus! HSoS!

My other hobby is designing and making clothes. I bought this red fabric for a dress. Before cutting this to pieces I shot series of photographs and used them for creating "Red fabric project".

It measures just 1/4 inch across, and is made of metallic yarns. Since it is twisted and has many curves - I thought it might do for this weeks Macro Mondays theme. HMM Everyone!
