I had alot of fun making this re-cycled denim bag! The pockets were cut off and restitched so that I could fray the edges of the denim around the pockets. All of the seams on the top band of the bag were stitched to the outside so they could be frayed as well. I added hot fix studs to the pocket stitching details and used vintage rayon ribbon for the sides of the bag. The waistband was used for the straps. I loved the look of this bag when it was finished. I sold the bag and haven't been able to duplicate the funky look that I achieved with this one! I guess that's why they call them "one-of-a-kind"!
