Sewing Projects

I saw an idea months ago that I wanted to try. Cut Off Jeans With Fabric Hem and Side Knot. I liked the idea,  but I modified it slightly since my girls are older.  Instead of just cutting the legs off of a holey pair of jeans, you could add a fabric cuff and dress up the new shorts.  I decided to try it on several pairs of ratty jeans the girls had.  I left them choose the fabric.







The other project I had been wanting to sew was a lunch bag.  I'm pretty particular about my lunch bags.  I had been reusing a plastic bag, which just felt tacky.  I wanted a nice lunch bag, however it needed to be fully washable and not just wipeable.  I found this pattern(Lunch Bag Pattern) and went for it.  It is yet to be seen as to whether or not it is functional, but it  appears to be and I love the fabric and how it turned out!
