I deconstructed the images of the print with beadwork and embroidery. It was fun but it took hours to do.
Any word of the issue on fox hunting? Who ever does this sport anyway?
There isn't a fox in sight on my obi.

Foxy Obi - Wan
Years ago I found this fabric, it was expensive and ridiculous. But I got a kick out of the print. It is 100% brushed cotton. So I made an obi out of a portion of the fabric.

That's so cool!
that's lovely - is it lined?
The other side is a striped twill, tone on tone, gold fabric. It is a lightweight upholstery. There is a tiny piping along the edge and leather laces, keeping in the horsey genre. I didn't add interfacing since it is meant to go around the waist or a little lower where we bend and stretch, the interfacing would deter those actions.
Ladies, thank you for your comments.
The obi is gorgeous, I can understand why you like the fabric so much. I love the added embroidery - it adds some oomph to it!
Hi,
try reading Rita Mae Browns books on the topic (Hotspur, Outfoxed). They are fun and might offer an insight. There is a third one, but I can't remember the title. Check one out at the library, I love most of her books.
