• Step 1

  What you’ll need to make your DIY Patched Jeans:
  1 Pair of ripped jeans.
  Extra denim from another pair of jeans
  Grosgrain fabric in a stripe or other fabric you want to add
  Pins
  Needle and contrast color thread

• 

  Step 2

  Step 1
  Lay your jeans out flat and measure your extra denim and fabric to make your patches. You will need patches for the inside of your jeans where the holes are and more decorative patches for the outside.

  Step 3

  Step 2
  Pin your patches on the inside of your jeans and using your needle and thread sew them on.
  I used a black thread and made my stitches large and visible to really give it a hand patched look.

  Step 3
  Lay your jeans flat and place all your patches on your jeans, overlapping them and mixing up the denim and other fabrics.
  Once you have all your patches where you want them, pin them to your jeans.
  I folded all the edges over before pinning mine, you can leave raw edges if you prefer, it just depends on how you want your jeans to look.

  Step 4

  Step 4
  Again using your needle and thread sew your patches to your jeans.
  I used large whip stitches, all around each patch, for this part to give it a more handmade look.

I have been following your blog for a while (I think I found it on Pinterest) and I pretty much love everything you do! You are so talented. You and others bloggers have really inspired me to think outside the box when it comes to fashion.
