Crazy pants refashion to skirt, 2 bags and a top.

This week has been a lovely trip down memory lane for me as I have transformed a pair of pants that haven't been worn in about 10 years into four wearable items that I love. I held onto them for so long for sentimental and historical reasons, but the time had come to give them a new life.

Here are the pants. Crazy awesome patchwork fabric made for me when I lived in Ghana, with lots of memories attached, and ill-fitting.

First I took the seam ripper to the whole inside seam and made a cute skirt - I've already worn this twice this week.

And then I made two bags and another top from the rest of the pant legs. There's barely a shred of fabric left now.

You can see how I made these in more detail over on my blog - 365 crafty if you want. 

Thanks,

Sharon
