Ingredients

- Blue Thread
- Ruler
- Sewing Pins
- Sewing Machine
- Iron
Instructions
- If the old jeans you’re using aren’t soft, you’ll want to stick them in the washing machine with some tennis balls or sneakers and fabric softener. Here’s a tutorial on how to soften denim.
- Once your denim is softened and dried, lay it out and cut four 19 x 15-inch rectangles.Starting with one side, fold it 1/4″ inch in, then fold it again another 1/4″ and iron. Keep it together with pins.
- Do that to all of the edges, this is so you won’t have a hard seem.Sew a straight line just along the folded edge, reinforcing when you get to the ends. Do this on every side.
- Iron them flat and tie with twine to give as a hostess gift!
Notes
Wash the jeans before starting this project.
