I'm sharing this post on:
This blog shows my recycled denim creations, along with tutorials for items I have designed myself. I collect old jeans (a strange collection, I know!) and cut them up to make bags, purses, animals and other items of varying sizes and shapes. I then sell these to raise money for weomen and children in the town of Utange, near Mombasa, in Kenya. I help women to set up their own businesses and am supporting the building of a new school for disabled children.

Striped tote bag
The idea for this came from these instructions. Mine are different dimensions; my denim stripes were 6" wide and the bag width was determined by the length of the pieced strips! I only used three strips of denim so ended up with a smaller bag. I think they work well, though - and they were fast to make.
