Double Shorts Bag

I was digging through my stash the other day and found a pair of my husband's cargo shorts. I knew that he recently had handed me another pair. Dig, dig, dig. I found them!!

One pair was old and completely worn (read hole in a critical seam, making them very breezy). And he just didn't like the other pair. Both were of lighter-weight fabric.

Now I have a bag with tons, and tons of pockets.


I made the handle super long so it hangs down across my body and well against my hip/thigh, which means it was much to large for my daughter to model. :)

I am super-duper loving this bag. Can't wait for hubs to get rid of more pants!!

  3. Oh, that is an excellent bag! My husband has those same shorts and is in the process of wearing them out right now - I may accidentally hasten the process. Oops, sorry, honey.

  8. How creative! My husband has some old jeans he was going to get rid off, I think I'll stop him and use the fabric to make a bag! Genius.
