This was an idea that I had posted on the sewing forum, and here it is executed. I used ribbon for all of it. It came out ok I think...

I apologize for the pics, I don't have a steady hand.

That is so neat. Is the tail a spiral of fabric? It looks great :)

Very nicely done! I think she wants a bit of gravel and plants in the tank though :)

No, its ribbon in squares, I did a kind of quilted tube thing, and it just spiraled when I sewed it. And thanks! :D :D :D

Thank you Greyhaunt, I wished it did too, I'll have to do something better when the tank becomes a terrarium.

Oh, and this thread is going to be mired with pics of the stuff I sew...sorry, I'm currently unemployed with a lot of time on my hands. Again, I'm sorry in advance.

Never apologize for happy things - not unemployment, mind you, but lots of sewing and pics is always acceptable!
