I had embroidered 2 designs on the pocket of this bag, then disaster. The hoop slipped. As most of us know denim is not a forgiving fabric when taking out stitches. I hated to throw it away. Then I thought of this. I took out the side seams releasing the pocket and covered the pocket inside and outside with this fun fabric. Sewed up the side seams and now I have a great bag to carry or store a project in or I can use it to get groceries. I wish you could see the fabric print. It is bolts of fabric of various colors and prints. Perfect for sewing or quilting.

You have done a wonderful job Karen. Looks great and well done for not throwing it in the bin - as I would have probably done!!!!

You did a great salvage job on it! No one could ever tell it started off as a mistake and ended up soooo nice! By the way, I can almost assure you that a great majority of us, me included, have made some boo boo's and had to do a quick rescue to make it right!
