    Thanks, lots of great ideas and I have lots of denim to recycle. I need to finish with other projects first (like Christmas presents)

    I like the woven purse..........and it had a couple of neat rugs.......wish they gave instructions.

    I have a GOB of denim........glad I kept it. I almost dumped it a year or so ago. Got to get busy and use it.

    Such cool ideas. Thanks for the link. I have a bunch of denim as well. I am going to make myself a throw for my bed, but probably won't be able to get started until January... Have to finish Christmas stuff first!

    Some people must either go through a lot of jeans, or don't give their jeans to someone else if not fitting any more. When my wife can't fit in her jeans, she gives them to one of her friends. When my jeans wear out, I use other worn out jeans for patching.

    If I had a large amount of denim, I would make some sort of blanket for picnics. Very sturdy.
