I have just cut this fabric off my loom.
It is going to be a posh bag for my Diabetes stuff,
and the fabric is woven in silk and with the tubing from my insulin pump as the weft.
 
It looks fantastic .
TBH I’m appalled at all the non recyclable diabetic waste I produce.

Looks fantastic and a great use of the tubing. 🙂 I always feel a bit guilty with all the waste generated by the pump. I suppose we can only use what's available and it's not my fault I got T1. I wish they'd hurry up with that cure and we wouldn't have this dilemma.
