Little Bags from Blue Jean Shorts

This is my favorite kind of "UP-Cycle" or "Recycle" project. Take a pair of pants your child, niece, grandchild, or friend has that fit good but are too short for pants anymore. Cut off the legs to make shorts. Add trimmings to the shorts and make the legs into tiny little bags.

Enjoy!
