Jean Skirt Reconstruction

I've been hunting for a good pair of jeans to reconstruct into a skirt- I'm apparently the last crafty person on earth to do such a thing. My excuse? I've really been waiting for the perfect pair of jeans, and I've *just* started sewing this summer.

Pics from the recon:

The jeans before cutting- they were actually capris, just below my knees, already frayed around the bottom. I loved the faded pattern and the diagonal seams across the legs. I found these at my local Good Will store for $3.



Pinning . . .



... and sewing ...



And the finished product!
