I have a favourite pair of jeans which must be five + years, only drawback is they are getting thread bare on the knee.However problem solved as I went to my small stash of material remnants and picked out square I liked and with a small amount of sewing, ha presto a pair of jeans that will last a few more years.
Nice job.
ReplyDeleteNice retro finish, too, with the flowery material underneath.
And I agree - reduce, reuse, recycle.
My old work clothes get turned into all sorts of things by the wonder that is Anna - trousers were worked into the main element of a cushion cover, a shirt was made into a very small pillowcase that Katya used as a baby, and is now used for dolls / soft toys to "sleep" on.
etc. etc. :-)
