It seems like some jeans come with very few belt loops - DH likes more than what come on them - so I frequently add two to four more belt loops to his jeans - so the idea wasn't TOTALLY ridiculous!

Cut off the top "belt" section and sew them to a pair of his undies...ask him if he likes the recycling plan
HAHAHAHAH

That is soo right! And most women's jeans are, luckily enough, made to fit below the waistline, so with my long torso and short legs, I can belt them at the waist and make them fit better. BUT they are usually lacking in enough belt loops in the back, so I keep any fabric from the ones I must hem up, and when I find a match I put in two extra belt hoops. And I don't like making them but they do make pants fit better.

This is hilarious!

Sounds like my dad who went through the depression.

I love this idea. Wonder if it will work?
I'm really loving this idea !!

you could save them up from a few pairs of jeans
attach waistbands to top of back of quilts
that you hang for display and loop a rod thru it.
