Bucket Boss for coffee cups

Being in construction, the idea of a Bucket Boss pencil holder could not be ignored.  They fit on regular coffee cups with pockets on the inside as well as the outside.  A great way to use small pieces of leftover fabric.  And I am not one to throw out fabric!


Aren't these just the cutest things ever??

Repurposed jeans shoulder bag and a couple others

 This started as a pair of worn out jeans that already had patched knees.  After cutting them off right at the top of the legs, I cut and resewed the crotch so it layed flat.  Under the flap is the front of the jeans- so the front pockets are still there, besides a nice roomy interior.







This is the back of the bag.  The back pockets provide spots for cell phone or whatever.  The strap I made out of a strip cut from the leg. 
 A fun bag made from pieces of fabric left over from other projects.  It has inside pockets also. 


















Here's another one- a little bit bigger than the other.  Again made out of left over fabrics.

A manly apron

  I decided to give aprons for gifts and needed one for a guy.
This one is made from a heavier fabric and has an adjustable
neck strap and one big pocket in front.

















I came up with this to embroider on the bib.  It's rather manly, don't you think?
