  Step 1

  Snag a pair of loose fitting jeans & a bunch of scraps

• 

  Step 2

  flip the jeans inside out & open up the side seams to the top of the thigh area

• 

  Step 3

  flip right side out & snip some randomly placed holes of various shapes & sizes out of the front of the jean legs

• 

  Step 4

  select & arrange your patches

  *doilies & bits of lace make great peek-a-boo patches – simply stitch a bright scrap of fabric behind them if you don’t want to flash some skin

• 

  Step 5

  stitch on all of your patches, either from the wrong side of the jeans facing down…

• 

  Step 6

  or on the right side of the jeans facing up

• 

  Step 7

  for a bit of extra detail I added the remains of the embroidery left over from my "batty no more top" to the jean hems

• 

  Step 8

  re-stitch the sides of the legs together and enjoy your groovy new jeans!

• 

  Step 9

  Boho chic perfection!
