Jeans Upcycling, Resteverwertung

Eine tolle Anleitung, es macht viel Spaß die Schildkröte zu nähen. Prima Tipps in der Anleitung. Ab jetzt ist der Schreibtisch meiner Enkelin viel aufgeräumter, da jeder Stift, Schere, Radiergummi u.s.w. seinen festen Platz hat. Klasse.

Schönes Geschenk

Diese Anleitung habe ich gesehen und mich sofort verliebt. Ich habe sie inzwischen 3x genäht und es geht immer besser. Außerdem hilft sie beim upcyceln der alten Jeans. Sehr gut nachzuarbeiten alles wird verständlich erklärt.

Superanleitung

Sehr detaillierte Anleitung mit sehr guten Fotos. Mit etwas Näherfahrung kein Problem. Habe auch schon den Elefantenanhänger und Pinguin „Smart“ von jotdot genäht, hat total viel Spaß gemacht.
