Thanks for your comments.....be sure and post a photo of the "jeans pockets" advent calendar. I have done several projects using the old denim jeans....purses and rag quilts. A good source for the old jeans is the thrift store. There is one by us that has a "bag" day.....fill a large garbage bag with anything you want for $1. What a deal! I always stock up on the jeans for future projects.
