I would probably not use that to made beaded moccasins with, just because it does stretch a little and there is alot of stress on moccasins to begin with. You don't want it stretching your beadwork out of shape. If you don't have leather to work with, I would probably go with a really heavy canvas, or anything that is thick and doesn't stretch.

I have even washed my sons bead moc's(take the leather soles off first) and chocker and cuffs in the washing machine their all beaded on diaper cloth the beads get all bright and sparling again and the backing doesn't smell like stinky boy sweat!!!!!!Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear... just sing, sing a song.sigpic
