Loz and Dinny to the rescue...


Well howdy, pardners.

When my old mama received this bit o' yeller trim from Loz and Dinny, she knew straight away what she was gunna use it for.


You see, I'd been kickin' around in these baggy girly jeans with pink embroidery on the bottom. Mama found'em at the op shop for one buck and made me wear'em, and I was lookin' just a bit too purdy. So after takin' the legs in to add a bit of cowboy flare, she whacked on the trim:

I don't think mama'll be winnin' herself any prizes, but I sure am happy that I've stopped lookin' like a big girl's blouse, ya know what I'm sayin'?

  6. I am still laughing... at you because you're funny, at you making your boy wear girly jeans and at this post written by your boy!

    What a great idea and use of the trim. While at first glace, the trim didn't scream BOY, you have certainly made it fit for a horse-riding boy to wear! Great job.

  8. Brilliant, I'm also still laughing! I was very nervous for all those involved in this challenge as it looked a bit too Granny to be made into anything nice but you've managed to convert a pair of jeans into GREAT jeans.

    Just don't tell my son or he may not want to wear the thrifted girly jeans I have in store for him!
