Default What are we making now?

It's high time we had a creativity thread, so here's my attempt.
I've made a skirt out of this wonderful fabric that's shot blue/green, lovely flowing stuff, in a long flared skirt. Now I'm making the belt - pix attached. There will be a top as well - at the moment I'm wearing a teal choli, which is nice, but I'm doing a ruched belt, so thought I'd try to make a ruched bra as well, but fairly plain.

I'm sure I'm not the only one creating out there - anyone else keen to show? Not just completed ones, but works in progress.

Oh and while I'm at it, how do you attach the bead drapes to the belt? I'm assuming it needs to be sewn in between the belt lining and the belt, but are there any other ideas?

I meant to add that down the ruching I'm beading green bugle beads horizontally, with blue/green beads down each side. What a way to do my brain injury rehab!!
