Description:
This swap is for those of us who can't bear to throw away that old favorite pair of jeans --- Let's give them new life! Take an old piece of denim from something (maybe an old pair of pants or an old jacket or whatever) and make something new and exciting out of it. Some of the ideas I had were: a doll or softie, a bag, napkins or placemats or maybe a tea cozy, how about a pillow or a pin cushion or even a painting with a denim canvas -- what have you! Look at your partner's profile to get an idea of what they might like. I did leave a pretty good amount of time between sign up and send so that you will have time to finish your project and get it sent! PARTICIPANTS: This is international, newbies are welcome, those with no-sends or ratings below 4.5 will be asked for an explanation, but if you have a plausible one, please do not hesitate to sign up. Newbies are welcome but must have their profiles filled out (the movies/TV shows part isn't important, of course, but the "about me" and "favorite crafts" parts are).
