It's my turn with baseball-snacks tomorrow

but instead of using a brown paper bag,
I decided to make some reusable fabric-bags.
And while I was preparing the bags, my embroidery-machine made the name tags.
Hope the guys and girls will like them.

These are simple drawstring-bags.
You will only need about 2 yards of fabric (this one is from JoAnns, 2 yards for 6.40 Dollars) and some twill. And a little bit of time.

Recycling and re-use

My husband is pretty tall. He wears Jeans size 38/34.
That's a lot of fabric *g*

So when he gave me two old jeans of his (broken between the legs beyond repair...)

I decided to make a new pair of jeans for my daughter with it.

I thought I could use one of the (still unused) patterns on my shelf and took this one: Kleine Klamotte by Farbenmix (not available in english).

After tracing the pants, I noticed that there was still a lot of fabric left, and with some twists, I was even able to trace the whole shirt! Wow - 1 jeans = 1 new jeans AND a shirt!

It looked like a massacre:

but I ended up with a nice pile of pieces:

As I tent to loose pieces while sewing, I started to stuck them into ziplock bags:

I started with the shirt, and it is not finished yet

(partly because I made some pretty silly things while sewing... Of course you can see my error!)

partly because I am always working on three projects at a time..

But I hope I will be done soon.

und noch ein WIP, aber ganz anders.

Weil ich einfach mehr Projekte machen will, als ich schaffen kann (zeitlich), mache ich meist mehrere Sachen gleichzeitig - alles so wichtig und so spannend....

Daher heute zum Creadienstag ein Einblick in mein zweites WIP:

Sehr schöne Jeans des Gatten.

Markenware, in echt grosser Größe (da ist viel dran!)

Leider an einer sehr ungünstigen Stelle total kaputt (Bein-Innennaht)

Massaker

reicht fast vollständig für das gesamte Schnittmuster - nur den Bundstreifen hat es nicht mehr hergegeben.

(heiteres Schnittmuster-Raten?)

alle Teile schön eintüten, das erhöht die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass man alle Teile wiederfindet, wenn man sie braucht.

Zurück zum Creadienstag geht es hier.
