How do I make a gillie suit?

Question

I am making a gillie suit and I am not sure exactly what to do. It is not going to be one that will last forever, I don't need it to last very long and I don't want it to be too expensive. I heard that all I need to do is tie a net to some clothing. I don't know exactly what to do after that. Do I have to tie stuff to the net or can I just put stuff in it? Plz help.

Update:

I was thinking that it would be easier to put a large peice of fabric over the back of the legs for the net to go on so there is less work.

basically you could use a net with small holes and lots of small pieces of green and light brown fabric to tie between each opening in the net until its covered then sew it to clothing

the sute is basicly camo with camo on top 
i wood start witha dark green tshirt and tan or green pants  asuming you dont have a camo top and bottom thay should be loose fithingor eavin bagy

then get out sum paint and pant the close in camo patterns 

the east way is to get a camo net from a army surplus store and rap it around your close stapels work good and are fast 

and get sum greenand tan and dark green yarn and hang sum from a bunch of spots in meny difrent legnts  it will look like crap up close but at 50 yarsa i wont see you in the trees/bushes
