| A pair of old jeans. |
 |
| An old top. |
 |
| There are lots of elements from these jeans that can be reused. |
 |
| Buttons, and the button holes. |
 |
| Pockets. |
 |
| Graphics and contrasting fabrics. |
 |
| Making paper patterns. You can use news paper but old ends of wall paper are stronger. |
 |
| As I intend to make quite a few of these items, I wish to put my patterns onto card. Old cereal and pizza boxes are great for this. |
 |
| Cutting strips of old jeans |
 |
| Mr Micawber. |
 |
| He was a jug, now a pin cushion. |
 |
| Using the patterns cut a pieces of old sheet, pillowcase |
 |
| Stitch. |
 |
| Add more strips |
 |
| Another piece of fabric, now patch work, this will be the inside of the piece. |
 |
| Add pieces and stitch, repeat. |
 |
| Old top, with great graphics |
 |
| Cutting the sleeve off and open |
 |
| Cut into strips. |
 |
| Add to the jeans. |
 |
| Signatures...., three in all. |
