Those were inventive projects - they turned out well!

As I was ironing my DH's cargo pants - I was thinking I would not want to be in the sewing factory where they make them! All those pockets!

Useful projects! Reminds me that there is still more to sewing than quilting.

What wonderful rugged stuff. I used to make all sorts of things, now I just use cotton and 1/4" seams but congrats to you! I know my old vintage Remington sews jeans and canvas and leather nicely but I wouldn't use my modern expensive machine, I'm sure it says it can...
