in NeedleWorkMonday4 years ago

Its been awhile. Been busy this past few weeks. I missed blogging.

I cut some of my old denims and thinking the lower part to recycle.
So I made a bag out of it and because i love crochet I put granny squares as an accent.

I love this! Very "70s" looking! I remember my mother made purses for my sisters and me using the bottoms of jeans legs after she cut them off to make shorts when the knees wore out.

Ive been using granny for so many projects.. so love them.😊

Hello... Grannies square are definitely a wonder, where we use them they do their job. Your bag is very nice, this type of bag is very practical. And make it a recycling project, I love it. Greetings.

Thank you! Yes granny is so versatile😁

Definitely the granny squares gave it the special touch ❤️

Yes agree!

Well, even though I sew and crochet, I have never attempted to combine them both in a project! I like your colourful granny squares and I really like denim!! So, I am thinking that perhaps it is the time to make something, like a wide bracelet combining denim and granny squares! Thanks for your nice idea :)

Yes we can use granny in many diff projects..so explore...enjoy

The dark blue denim and the bold colors of the crochet fit together so well! I really love your bag its modern with a tad of vintage vibe <3
