No need to let a hole in your favorite jeans get you down. This quick and easy project will show you how to recycle them into a stylish new skirt.

You Will Need:

  • An old pair of jeans
  • Sturdy thread (upolstery thread or embroidery thread works well)
  • A needle or sewing machine
  • Sewing pins
  • Scissors
  • A seam ripper
