What to do with jeans? Update...
Jan. 13th, 2008 10:30 pmSo the decision is...
- Keeping a couple pairs that were in good enough shape for weekend wear (which will hopefully prolong the life of M's "wear to work" jeans).
- Making a dress for TRex out of 2ish pairs (not sure exactly how much it'll take). Probably going to adapt the Herjolfsnes 10 gore gown into a more modern shape, because I am simply that much of a geek. (Also, I can do it off of measurements and it uses small pieces, which are good for that gown and bad for a modern pattern.) I will, naturally, post a "what I did" and pictures when I finish it.
- Making grocery-shopping bags out of most of the rest. Right now we use conference bags, some of which are too narrow in their openings to make for really good, easy access. I'll jot down what I do and post instructions when I've worked out what I'm doing (I have a rough idea but it will definitely be an experiment).
