I have 3 books on using jeans and there are so many things patterns and ideas I do not remember her name but just google the junk jeans lady and I am sure you will find her and you should be able to find some of her books on ebay or amazon she even uses the loops on the waste band in projects I have been to several of her demos but that was several years ago in fact you may even be able to find a video on you tube good luck and have fun
