Hmm, I don't think I've seen that before. Does anybody know what it's called?

Those are adorable, did you have a pattern for them? I have some jean skirts that I want to make a bag out of! Yes a few were upside down but they are still really cute!

Jeans skirts are easiest, you don't have to cut the legs off and try to make an even bottom. The really isn't a pattern, just sew the bottom to create the bag, lay that on your lining and trace around the bag with about 1 1/2 inches extra at the top to fold over. mI use fusible fleece on my lining and add pockets however you want, then sew up the sides, insert into the bag and pin all around. I line my straps with matching fabric ( straps cut from one leg) , make a key clip on a tab, then insert straps and key clip between lining and bag, pin well, and sew around. Make yor tie or just use a belt. Each one is different, and if you try your first me, don't be too critical. They take a bit of practice, and you'll improve with each one. I set of evolved the design the more I made them

It's something like "Jean Ma Jig". I got mine at Joanns, I think it is by Dritz. I bought it a year ago, but it is a pretty basic notion so you shouldn't have trouble finding it in notions. I don't think it was with the quilting stuff.

Both are so darling!! Right on target for your customers, I love them. I have been saving our old jeans for years. You inspire me to do something with them.

(Two of the pics were upside down, but I just held my laptop upside down to view, lol)
