I LOVE using up some fabric scraps. I always feel that after I use a fabric from my stash, that I should be making room in my drawers, but unfortunately fabric scraps seem to take up just as much room as a flat fold. So, when I am able to use up the last little material scraps from a previous project, it is extremely rewarding.
These little CTR wrist bands used up the remaining nylon webbing that I had from the Nylon D-ring belts that I made a couple of weeks ago. Wahoo! Unfortunately, I liked the bands so much that I went out and purchased five times as much nylon webbing, to make some for my bazaar booth.
What I used:
Scrap piece of leather with CTR (choose the right) stamped in it
1" of velcro tape
6.25" of nylon webbing (3 year old measurements)
Contrasting thread
To start out I added a few rows of contrast stitching along the nylon webbing. I was surprised how easy it was to feed through the machine with the zig zag stitch.

The contrast stitching is really fun. :)
The stitching looks great, nice idea :)
I can't wait to make these for my CTR's. Thank you for sharing. Will try to use stamped rings for the girls. Love your site. Chyrel
These look really good. You could even ditch the velcro and put a side release buckle on for an added touch.
