I have an older black pair I'm going to use-washed em & they're ready to shred apart. Hey-I'm thinking of using halloween fabric for the black jeans-I could do a Halloween patchwork.....

Cathy,
Do you think its easier to use denim in the patched section or another softer fabric? |

Robin, I always use a softer cotton fabric, it flows so much better. And i always use a fun cotton with a scene or just a funky pattern.

I'll remind you that the whole sowing-seeds-cause-and-effect concept was just a myth, because you were born deserving.
