had to put it in this way http://cakecentral.com/gallery/2053460
I think I understand what you are asking. Check out the buckles on my Hello Kitty cake in my photos. If this is what you are trying to do on a smaller scale, then I can tell you yes it can be done. It is actually an illusion. The gumpaste does not go through the buckle. I made my buckle ahead and let it dry. Then you take a tiny piece of gumpaste and attach it on the underside (that will not be seen) of the buckle. Attach the other end of the gumpaste to the other side of the buckle. then I took a tiny little piece of gumpaste painted to match the buckle and attached that to look like the little prong that goes through the holes in a real buckle. At this point all you need to do is make your shoe and attach on end of the 'strap' to the backside of the buckle. Then attach the other end of the 'strap' to the other side of the buckle. These should be attached so that the ends are hidden under the backside of the buckle where they won't be easily seen. The you take a small piece of gumpaste that matches the 'strap' and attach it to the end of the buckle where the extra strap would come out of a real buckle (hope that makes sense! lol ) Make sure you make some little holes in this piece so it looks like a real strap. And voila! Done.
ok now that I see the pic, it's not quite what I thought you were asking, but the same basic principle applies. Think of every part you see as a separate piece of gumpaste and attach them together in the correct pattern (like a putting puzzle pieces together!) Don't try to weave long pieces together when it would be simpler to 'glue' smaller pieces together to get the same effect.
