Hi cuties, as a child I spent a lot of time with my grandparents. One of their maximes: No wasting. This became one of my principles too. So I like all projects, where "old" things are turned
into new. No wonder I like traditional
patchwork too.
Here I found a nice idea of how to use old
jeans pockets.
Great for a picnic or a country house
themed table decoration.

18966 I like this site. Thanks for posting. There are some things on it like the crafter Carol Duvall had on her TV show ... boy I miss her and her show. (There are some re-runs, but not like seeing her all the time.) She had some VERY TALENTED PEOPLE on that show. I often wonder how she is. She was having some trouble, I think, with her knee or leg. DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW SHE IS DOING?? Please share if you do. Thanks again Eva.
4300 Eva as usual you are the 1 to come up with a wonderful site. I also like recycling stuff and spent a lot of time on this 1. Thanks for sharing.
729 it's funny to use the pocket this way again.but I have to disappoint you, this example wasn't embroidered but the name was painted. But you're wright it would be much more fun if it was embroidered! thanks for sharing.

21820 Oh, Eva, I end up spend sooooo much time on the computer because of you, hee hee hee. This is a really nice website, all kinds of neat things to do! I found a way to make personalized notepads, and add an embroidered cover, too! Wow. Thanks, Eva, you always come up with unusual stuff. Hugs, Marji

25060 Thank you. That's a very cute idea. I can also see it as a pocket on a placemat made from old jeans.
1193 I save all old jeans. You can do so much with them and they are always in style. Thanks for the post.

13343 Merci; great idea for using up old jeans.
The legs of jeans can be made into bags for
camping tent poles or into shoe bags for
your luggage, also. Although they
didn't detatch the pocket from the
jeans, it wouldn't be difficult to do
and then stick it to the stabilizer and
embroider it!
*4u!

11235 2819 Very cute idea. You wouldn't even need to use old pockets - you could make them yourself in any color or use some of those that are FSL that you see and embroider two and stitch up along the sides for a fancy buffet. *4U

Those pockets are adorable, but like gerryvb said, they are not embroidered. However, that site has lots of other jean projects, including this one that IS embroidered! So cute! http://ww w.chicaandjo.com/2009/01/0...
