OT: Sewing quilted belt?

Not entirely OT: I want to make a cloth belt. Used to have one that was about 2 1/2" wide, tapered to about 1/4", wrapped around twice to tie in the front, and was sewn--quilted--in lines its length; it had something inside--maybe flannel?--to give it body, or maybe very thin cotton batting? It eventually faded so much I got rid of it. Five years later, I wish I had it to copy! Anyone know how to do this or know of a link before I go cut up precious cloth and muddle around?

TIA

Does your library carry Threads magazine? a recent issue has a blue belt on the cover with spirals of same color piping decorating it. The article had some info on cloth belt. (Sorry, I can't remember the month)

Sounds almost like a martial arts belt. Roberta in D

Way back when, Shirley Adams had a TV show. Mostly clothing construction, but she had a really neat collection of ideas for making belts-matching and non matching. I know she has a web site, not sure if the books are still published, but you might just have luck and find one in a library somewhere. Anna Belle in Palm Bay
