who post together on 15th of the month to share scrappy projects.
Last month I was sewing with chopped off legs of old jeans, making dog bed covers thus
For this month, I used up two back pockets, and some more leftover leg.
I made a little zippy pouch back for the Husband to sling over his shoulder when we go to the park every day with Tali. Dog treats in the inside pouch, and doggy poop bags in one of the pockets. It’s a bit rough & ready, but it does the job.
And last photo of the bag (well back view of the strap) the puppy and the Husband at the park.
That is such a good idea! I must copy it because I keep treats in my coat pocket and have to keep turning a nasty mush out when they get wet!
I did at first, then forgot and threw my anorak in the washing machine with a handful of treats still in the pocket.
Yup!!!
Great idea for treat and poop bag carrier.
For one delighted moment I thought you had found buttons that look like dog treats, and I wanted to know where! I have a pile of pockets rescued from the Husband’s work pants for exactly this sort of use, as well as zippers to recycle and waistbands to turn into something… when I get the inspiration.
lol sorry, no buttons.
Scrappy love, and happy puppy – what a good use for something headed for the scrap heap!
indeed, anything to keep Tali happy.
Great idea for those with dogs.
and the husband thinks it looks good enough for him to wear out to the park ^^
I love the idea of using old jeans for dog beds; they would stand up to so much wear and tear! And the bag is super cute too!
yes denim is great for dog beds. Dogs like to scratch before they settle and denim fabric holds up really well despite claws of quite large dogs.
super idea and great use of those scrappy pockets, perfect for a husband. I have a few myself but no doggie (or husband!).
The dog treat bag is a splendid idea that is dual purpose, too. I think that was inspired.
Wonderful! I love denim, and this project turned out marvelous!
Genius. Good enough to sell onto others. What are the red things and the sticks in your photo please?
the red things are tunnels (about 5m long each) and the sticks mark a “start here” position. We take Tali out everyday to a private dog park (belongs to the kennels/breeders) where they have an agility course set up in one area. We’ve already started exercising Tali on the obstacles a young pup can do: tunnels, low hurdles etc . . . Gibbs used to love doing a bit of agility just for fun and it looks like Tali will enjoy doing agility too.
Such great idea, using a jeans pocket for a pouch!
That’s a good conversion! Love it.
