Steps to make pencil case from jeans
1. First, we need to prepare the following materials: a pair of jeans legs, a pair of scissors, two cloth stickers, and a pair of zippers.
2. Cut the fabric to the size as shown in the picture. Be sure to leave the original crimping position of the trouser legs in the middle, which is not only beautiful but also easy to use.
3. Attach the prepared cloth stickers as a decoration for the pencil case.
4. Use an electric iron to iron the cloth sticker, so that the cloth sticker will be stronger. We can iron the entire piece of fabric. This will make the pencil case smooth and look more beautiful!
5.Use scraps of fabric to sew two more portable bags, about 1 cm wide.
6. Sew the zipper to the fabric.
7. Turn it over to the front, cut off the excess zipper, and arrange the zipper head to prevent it from falling apart during later use.
8. Turn the pencil case inside again and sew the other half of the zipper on the other side.
9. In order to achieve a three-dimensional effect, we need to sew the four corners as shown in the picture.
10. The pencil case is completely sewn. This is a detailed picture. Isn’t it a very simple and practical craft?
