Lycra / Spandex / Tension Fabric Tutorials?

I swear I've tried to search all over these forums and on the internet, but I can't seem to find any resources for doing the 3-dimensional stretch fabric installations. As far as I can tell, it seems like Rose Brand is the best place to get materials, but from there, I can't find any resources or tutorials on how to start connecting them (and with what), how to start doing the cutouts, interesting shapes, structures, etc. Does anyone have any links to tutorials? Any help would be much appreciated.

you can get spandex at any fabric store or ebay.

ive been cutting triangles mostly. you can tie knots in the corners or some people sew a loop in...

i use green painted floral wire to wrap behind the knots and attach to the walls/trees/whatever.... i find wire is stronger and easier to wrap rather than trying to tie knots.... the wire is like a buck at walmart or craftstores...

you can grab edges and pull the shapes around by using beads, wrap the fabric around the bead and wrap wire around the bead and fabric...

as far as specifics, thats trial and error i think...
hope that helps...           www.bluespectralmonkey.com
