This has proved another very popular line - so much so that I have virtually sold out. So, before my imminent run of sales, it was time to restock this line as well.
I was given a loarge reel of grosgrain ribbon, which I have used for the "string" on some of these pouches. I will be interested to see the response.
As ever, interesting (and fairly small) pockets are the key - these are a good way of using the pockets on children's jeans. I have found it much quicker to make these witha zip top rather than with a flap fastened with a button. This is a clear sign of my growth in confidence - I still remember (and am frequently reminded) saying to a friend that I "don't do zips". Fortunately I have conquered that fear!
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.
