Refashioning Those Shorts

A little over a year ago Husband’s favorite shorts were sent to the fabric-in-the-shape-of pile.  And there they sat.

Last week, Daughter’s swimming pool bag was declared dead, too, and not even good enough for the pile.

Today, in a sudden burst of inspiration, the shorts became a swim bag.  With flair.

She likes it.  Tomorrow…to the pool!

ps–A few notes.  The cuff from the bottom of the legs is the lining for the handles.  Very sturdy.  And a good length.  I had some pre-made piping that helps to set off the boundary between the denim and the new bottom fabric. The bag is fully lined and has a zipper on the top.  There is also a zippered security pocket on the inside made of the legs, what little there was left. The pockets are all fully functional.  Good for holding bottles of sunscreen. I should have pictures of the process, but I was more focused on creating than picture taking.  Bad blogger me!
