More Jumble Sale Challenge. I have been using the fabric from the legs for various projects, but thought I should turn my attention to the tops. The right hand one is simply two back pockets. I cut them out complete with the body fabric and stuck them together with Bondaweb before stitching them together. This gives a two section bag. The otherone has a steampunk design from Urban Threads. Both handles are recycled as well.

Great recycling projects. I was just listening to a segment about what happens to waste products of all kinds. A man is building homes out of materials that people have tossed away. They are strange looking, but very energy efficient. It makes people happy, provides a practical and useful item, and is good for the earth. Recycling fabrics/clothing and turning them into "new" useful items is a good challenge, and you seem to have an endless talent for doing this. Kudos to you.

I love the idea of using the pockets. I was looking at a pair of size 50 jeans thinking I could get a lot of projects out of them. I think I might go back and get them if they are still there.
