Which brings me to my big roll of cow fabric. I picked it up for free a few years back, someone (or some company) cut about 4 inches off the edge of a few million yards of fabric. I kid you not! There's a whole lot of this (I have 2 spools full plus a couple dozen rolls of it hanging around). It's perfect for this project!

OOPS! I realized needed an ODD number of spokes...I ended up cutting a strip in half, tying it to the middle and then to the hoop:
The kids had fun, I had fun, lots of cow fabric got used up and I thought about a couple more crafts to do with the kiddos using this type of circle weaving technique.
Can't ask for much more than that!

Oh yay! The boys and I haven't done ours yet. We need to get on that. I have a huge pile of tees to donate.
Super neat idea! Especially since most have a hula-hoop and extra fabric laying around already. lisaranae.blogspot.com
Really really like this, cool idea! Nice post:)
Wow! That actually does look like a fun project! New follower from the I ♥ Blogging Wednesday Hop! I would ♥ for you to stop by http://aboutamom.com to say hi & return follow!
This is so neat! I will have to try this one out! Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
Great idea. Old timers used wagon wheels as a loom. I always wondered what I could do in it's place. Small mats could be made with large embroidery hoops or those big gold ring things.

That is so cool! How do you take it off the hula hoop when you are done?
