IshiHime: a (sort of) interpretation

I really liked Orihime with Ulquiorra and Grimmjow, in my warped perspective they could've made a great team.

I was re-watching several episodes of the Soul Society arc, and to be fair to Orihime, I think she did great, she was awesome; she thought out of a disguise plan, knocked out two Shinigamis and wanted to actually go back to help Ishida when he was battling Mayuri, while Aramaki a member of the 11th-freaking-Squad, wouldn't have anything to do with him. This is the girl who is now sitting on the ground crying "Kurosaki-kun"
But, I'm here to talk about IshiHime, so here goes;
Everybody knows that Orihime's namesake is a mythological character and the Tanabata festival (derived from its Chinese counterpart Qi Xi Jie) is centered around her story, there are many different version that varies from country to country but in the Japanese version Orihime was a skilled weaver who was responsible for sewing clothes for her father, the Jade Emperor. Now, while Ichihime supporters choose the Tanabata myth as a basis for their ship (Oscar Wilde and I are still wondering about that one), I say that they're wrong.
Tanabata is IshiHime. Orihime was a weaver and I think that there's a guy who is extremely skilled at sewing in the Bleach universe:

Hint: He's a quincy and he's badass

If you ask me, in terms of parallels with the tanabata story, it's as if Orihime's skill has been personified, they're one and work together as one.
Does it make sense?
Extras:

Comical, but it also seems to indicate that Orihime is at ease around Ishida, since she thought she was with Tatsuki, who has been her best friend and protector. While she just goes to pieces around Ichigo.
As for the 'Princess' Analogy, more chivalrous than Ishida, tu meurs (lit. you die). He's one of the most gallant characters in the series.
