If you like orange, you will absolutely love this orange satin brocade custom handmade guitar strap with its colorful, iridescent dragonflies. The backdrop for the dragonflies is bright pumpkin orange satin. The dragonflies are incredibly detailed. As with all brocade satin, they are woven with individual thread into the body of the satin fabric, creating a striking three dimensional appearance to them. Also, as with real dragonflies, these woven satin dragonflies are made with iridescent colors including gold, yellow, fuchsia, pink, blue, orange, and green. They are just stunningly detailed, often rendered with extremely tiny weave points. The back of the guitar strap is pumpkin orange Duchess satin, one of the very finest, thickest members of the satin fabric family. The leather tabs are premium top quality black suede leather.

My guitar straps are amazingly comfortable. The 3 inch width allows for weight distribution over 50% more area than conventional guitar straps and even solid body bass players have commented on how comfortable my guitar straps are. Further, because there are 3 bottom layers of fabric between your shoulder and the polypropylene foundation, there is a soft cushion to help further distribute the weight of your guitar without holding the body heat that standard lamb's wool shoulder pads retain, so your strap is soft, cool, and comfortable. No more aching neck or shoulder and no more pressure points.

When I find a really unusual fabric, I grab it. I don't have any idea who will like it; I just know I have to have it and I have to make a guitar strap with it. When I saw this brocade satin, initially I was drawn to the brightness of the orange in it. But, when I saw the enormous detail the weaving of the dragonflies into the satin, I just couldn't pass it up. I really hope you like it.

I received this beautiful fabric from www.sunnysidebiz.artfire.com. I hope you'll visit her studio sometime. Thanks!
