The Scraps

 

The jeans recycling challenge is now finished.  I just couldn’t find a use for the final scraps; they were too scrappy.  They didn’t end up in the bin -I added them to a cushion I stuffed.

If you’d like to read the earlier posts, the first one is here, and the second one is here.

Cheers!

    Very well done, Liz! I love your Jean project!
    Those slippers not only can be worn at home but also useful for long international flights. I wonder what kind of padding or wadding you used for the bottom of the slippers. I like the idea of using final scraps for stuffing a cushion. I reckon you are a real creator!

    Cheers,
    Chiggy

      Thanks Chiggy. I hadn’t thought about slippers for the plane -good idea. For the bottom of the slippers I used some thin wadding, but next week I will give you the slipper pattern 😉

    I can’t load the blog post after this one about the Free pattern ballerina slippers. It says the page doesn’t exists.

      Thanks for letting me know Tom -I’m still trying to fix it.
