    Here's a small up-date. I have some nylon webbing straps left over from some other projects, and they don't fray or slightly stretch enough to make then worthy of wrap around garters.

    If you can't find cotton, don't try nylon. -- keep looking for cotton.

    A bit of trial-and-error with Rit dye and the white cotton webbing and you'll have perfectly matching ties. The Rit web site has tips on mixing colors to give the desired shades.
