Default From Old Jeans to a shopping bag!
I was messing around and came up with this from old jeans using binding for the finish on the top and some fabric for some piping.. Now I have lots of shopping bags.. and they wash up...

What a great idea. We all seem to have old jeans and what a perfect way to use them.

Super idea! I say you can never have too many of those! I love that you made them out of blue jeans.
