Pants Leg Bag


This is the first of three messenger bags I made from old pants. It's also the first project I ever made using french seams (so I didn't have to put a lining coz i really sick at linings). It's basically a simple messenger bag made out of a pant leg. Since this was to be Jacob's bag for his drawing book when we go out, I decided to make the strap adjustable so the bigger he gets he could still use the bag. I just haven't finished sewing all the button holes yet tho.
I made two more of these, slightly smaller and sans the adjustable strap but with side pockets for pens. Those were Christmas gifts for Jake's cousins which I hadn't had time to photograph as they were finished just in time for Christmas. hee.
