Its been relentless rain here today which has scuppered my plans to show you the contents of Miss T's bag.
So I have this to show you instead. It's my completed scrap challenge. The 'bottom' of these jeans was sitting on my table (ha ha) at the same time as all my scraps and suddenly, inspiration struck! I'd been wanting to make an apron with the bottom for ages, but was undecided on the best way to do it. In the end, I extended the top with a bit of leg, put the waistband back on, and hey presto! Recycled jeans, complete with flowers growing out of the pockets.

That is fabulous Julia... love it!
Ooohhh what a fab idea, my ten year old (who is currently peering over my shoulder) thinks their "cooool". She has an old pair of jeans that I want to re-use, but I think she will get more use out of a jean bag!
I wish I had a waist that small too!lol
cheers Alex
Now that is amazing! Love it!
I've seen blue jean bags before, I have even made a few, but never have I seen one so cute!!!
What a brilliant idea! I love it!
Jeanius! (couldn't resist!)
I've made bags before, but never thought of an apron. It's brilliant!
God, you've been busy! I love that apron, sometimes materials just tell you don't they. I enjoyed 'looking through' your new book too. Mum has loads of 1940's knitting books and I love browsing them. (though they are more suited to your waist measurment than mine-maybe I'll make my million with 'the ration diet'-minus the whale meat of course!)
Just love it, Julia...fantastic!! :O)Happy weekend ahead ((HUGS))
fantastic~really cute!
wish my talents went so far! i have bought some black ribbon to customise a dress that reveals a bit too much however!
This is a great idea. Lovely clear photo to. i aggree about the lovely waistline too, (grren envy monster)!

Absolutely fabulous!! Brilliant idea to recycle old jeans into an apron - the flowery embellishments add the perfect touch!!
