Bagmaking Part III

My groupmates chose my recycled denim jeans bag as the product for our marketing plan. I can tell they were excited about having customized bags (well, except the two guys in our group) and I was pretty excited too. I haven’t sewn anything in weeks. That is, until their old jeans started pouring in.

My mom’s 30+ year old Singer sewing machine. I stared at it more than the computer screen this week. What a miracle.

For the past few days, with the exception of Saturday of course, I’ve done nothing but cut and sew ridiculously thick denim jeans and poke thread through needles. I need to make two presentable denim bags, one for girls and one for guys for our presentation and so far I’m only partially done with the GUY bag. I haven’t looked for good fabrics for lining yet and blah blah blah.

Here are two of the three bags I’ve worked on so far and more photos on Flickr:
