I wore out my favorite pair of jeans, but couldn't seem to let them go. They just fit my butt so well. I hoped to make a small rug, but this turned out to be a much bigger project than I expected. So, I made a trivet instead.
To make it, I cut the jeans into long strips about one inch wide. Next I ironed the strips.
I wanted to make small and large rolls. To make the larger roll I folded the strip in half. For the small ones I cut the strips in half so they were 1/2 inch wide.
Then I started making the rolls. I stitched at the end to keep it together.
Lastly I started sewing one roll to the next.
