Those look so nice and colorful that it should make you smile to use them... :grinnnn:

Thanks, Tina.  I am really enjoying making them and the fact that they can be made so quickly is a bonus.  After I get tired of making these, I will look for a more complicated pattern to make.  I'm not sure what I would want yet though so I will wait.

Started work today on my first jean square bag.  Here is my layout for the project.  Whatcha think?

The sides of the bag


Edges and bottom

Very colorful. :ThumbUp: You will be able to spot it if you misplace it... :wink5:

Mrs. Fay is a 1st/2nd grade teacher.  I thought it fit well.

Looks great, Triss! 

I made another bag on Saturday and took pictures.  I just need to get them uploaded and try to write something with them that makes sense.  I will try to do that tonight.

THe sewing on this bag is very fast.  Got one panel done and am working on the next one.

Maybe today, at least the put together part.  It will take a while to get it washed and frayed.

Triss, I can't wait to see it finished!  You are killing me here making me wait.  And you are making my urges to craft harder and harder to resist!   :SmileyNailbiting: Must. Remind. Myself:  Girl Scouts.  Cookies in oven.  Make copies.  Finish flyers.  No crafts.  No time.  Stop thinking about crafts!!   :dunno:

Ok Sarah... here you go.  Well as least as much as I have done.  I need to cut and fray it and add a handle.

The inside of the bag


Outside


Bottom... a solid jean bottom was Dan's idea.


Filled with things.

Looks great!  I think the solid jean bottom is a good idea.  More durable.

I agree Jessica.  I am glad Dan thought of it cuz I had my mind set on piecing one together.  I am also going to make a solid jean handle but I need Lys to find me a pair of her jeans with holes in them.  She has the long legs that will make a good one.  The lil boys jeans were barely long enough for the bottom.

I am very happy with how it turned out.  I have been looking for my snipper tool and cannot find it... may be packed so I will have to get a new set before I can do any more.

I finished my bag today and just in time because Mrs. Fay is headed out today for her surgery next week.  Please keep her in your prayers.
