Alternate use?
I've been a jeans-cutter-offer for years. It always appears that the clothes I buy end up taking on a new life at some point during my ownership of them.
Meet my new maternity jean shorts. (Blackberry photos.)
They were once longer maternity jeans. However, since I live in the land of the stiffling heat and already have four pairs of maternity jeans -- figured, why not take that fifth pair and turn them into shorts? (Love gap maternity jeans with the "hidden" tuxedo-pant-style, no-panel waist. All my maternity jeans are from there and I REALLY like them and really recommend them.)
Back to the topic at hand: Left over from them there shorts are these.
What to do?
What to do?
What to do with these legs?
For some reason I never immediately pitch the fabric remnants. Why? No idea. Do I sew? No. Our sewing machine is in storage in Ohio.
So I'm asking you - WHAT, on earth, could I do with these?

Hmmm...without a sewing machine, my best advice is to cut them into strips and knot them in some way to make a toy for Ferg and/or Lila. :)
ReplyDelete(I never throw fabric away either!)
That was my thought, as well. . . a great toy for Ferg. :)
ReplyDeleteDo a skirt for Fergie!! (can you cut some non-maternity pants for me?)
ReplyDeleteCut them into strips, braid them, roll them into a rosette shape and make a clip or headband flower for Lila (or you). Super duper cute.
