I love using denim for bags. It's sturdy and will go with just about anything. Most of the time I recycle old jeans so it's cheap. I recently made my dog a denim plushie. She's hard on her toys and denim seems to last longer.

Making a cover for my new sewing machine. Then, I'm off to do some spring/summer t-shirts refashions.
Working on a new purse at the moment. It's a slow process.
I want to start on some spring refashions too. I have some shirts that are screaming for makeovers. I have to stay focused though.
