I turned my sons old jeans into a baseball bag when he was young. I just sewed bottom of legs shut. Sewed a strap on one end of the leg and on waist then tacked legs together on the inside hem. And velcro on waist part. Bats went into legs, balls in bag and glove fit in body part. Pockets held gum, etc.
When you break it down step by step, it looks very doable for me. I love the way it looks. Even the zipper looks like something I could do. I wish I never got rid of old jeans. I sure don’t any more! I am going to make this. Thank you so much for this tutorial.
I love the bag and especially the colour of the lining. It goes so well. I’m always a bit nervous about the thickness of denim. Especially doing the top stitching at the top of the bag. I understand using jeans needles but my poor machine might struggle. Don’t you just hate that sound when it is going over thick seams. It makes me hold my breath Lol. 😖😖. Thanks for the tutorial. Loved the zipper technique. 👍👍👍
My granddaughter just mailed me 6 pair of jeans that she doesn't need anymore, she said ,... Grandmom I thought you could use this material. I'm going to make a few bags like this. Thank you Sherrill for this great tutorial!
Hi Lisa. I'm sure if you take your time and not rush it, you will be able to sew this. But if you have never sewn anything before, I recommend you start with a pot holder or placemat. Let me know it turns out. Glad you liked the denim tote bag. Thanks for watching💗and happy sewing😍
