Lovely bags! Thank you for sharing. :)

Jill, I love my bags!!! they are awesome! hugs to you

Love the fabric in the chocolate one. Great job.

Here is another one for girliegirl! With her permission, I am posting it, just hope they aren't upside down again. PLEASE let me know if they are!

Can you please tell me what do you do with the rest of legs that you cut off.

sorry, I missed your post somehow! One leg makes the straps, usually can get both straps from the back of one leg, leaving the front and the whole other leg. I am saving them to do a denim quilt, but I also think I will make some denim flowers, IPad covers, and any other cute crafty thing that comes my way. I have two HUGE bags stuffed with left overs from these totes, plus a few whole jeans I have that were given to me that I won't use for purses.

They are really cute, I see them up side down.

Its got to be an IPad problem. No matter what I do when I take the picture with the IPad, then turn around to post on the board, they are upside down! I can't win! Sorry about that!

I think the bags are great but the coffee looks so good, if it weren't so late or early I would make a cup. I love frogs too so am torn about favorites. Thank you.

Your Bags are beautiful. I love the chocolate one. I want to make some with a knitting theme. Where do you find the pattern for these bags? Do you use actual jeans or do you sew the whole bag? If you use jeans, do you use a children's size or adult size?

I use real jeans I get at the Goodwill etc. Half the fun is shopping for a perfect pair. I use ladies size up to a 12, but also use children's if aim want a smaller bag. There isn't really a pattern, I have seen one on line similar, but didn't like the way it was done, so I developed my own method of constructing them as I made them. Believe me, the first few I made weren't as nice and well finished as they are now. It took practice, and each one I learned from and improved until I got where I really was satisfied. I also learned which jeans to buy and which to stay away from. I have several pairs I bought that Zi won't use for bags. Good thing I want to make a denim quilt and a couple smaller
projects from the scraps. I think a knitted theme would look great! These bags adapt to a huge variety of themes, just by what fabrics and "bling" you use. A knitted tie through the belt loops would be wonderful, with some knitted themed fabric used for the lining and pockets, maybe a couple iron-on appliqué patches too. Be sure to post what you do!!

I love them! Specially the chocolate one!

These are very cute.

I've made a couple of bags with knitting fabric. Here's a link to the fabric I used.

That fabric would be perfect! Think BLACK jeans or WHITE jeans! Stunning!

No viewing issues and love the bags!
