I like the thought of jeans skirts. Also messages bags are pretty nice also. I have seen jeans made to cushions before also.

Hope you are ready, I have a ton of ideas for you.
1) Make cute waste aprons, you can use other fabric to make a fun trim, this is a great gift for a little girl, or jazz it up for an older gal in your life.
2) Use just the pockets from several pairs to make a fun wall organizer for a teens bedroom.
3) Cut a bunch of squares out of the legs, all the same size, and make a lawn quilt. Perfect to take on picnics and such. The material is heavier and won't blow away as easily.
4) Make some potholders. The material is thick which is perfect, add some quilt batting in between to pieces and there you have it. :)
Hope these ideas help a little bit, if you need more, please feel free to pick my brain. I can come up with a ton.
Happy Crafting!

Maybe try backpacks or tote bags? They're similar to purses. I've always been fascinated with the large assortment of crafts people can make from one item. I wish I had the time to do that! Good luck!
