I had a pile of jean scraps and I decided to make a little scrap bag for my sewing table.

I always put my thread scraps in my mason jar...so I made this little bag to hold my mason jar.

I even lined the inside of it with a leftover fabric. I really like the fabric...sure wish I had more of it.

That is very cute with the jeans...I keep old buttons, wooden spools of thread, and snippets from quilts I've made in mason jars :)

This is TOO cute for words! I also like the lining fabric, too bad you don't have any more.

I would have said that, but then someone would post and tell me I need to cut them a certain size otherwise I'll kill a bird or something.
