braided cord cut and flattened out
« on: June 06, 2025, 02:50:56 AM »
3mm custom harlequin patterned cord,
length 20cm
seeing if i can make a panel of it,
i put a 3mm x 1mm metal strip in it as a core,
the metal strip is from a windshield wiper blade,
i dissected it with a razor blade,
and then ran heat along the edges.
consequently it's structurally quite weak,
decorative only
about 8mm wide, but it doesn't sit very flat

the cord is 16 threads, 8 colors x 2, but i had pulled out one of the purple lines
