How-To

1. Cut pants just above the leg.2. Turn the top inside out.3. Line up edges and pin together. Sew the edges together.
4. Turn the bag the right way out. Add a handle by pinning and then sewing into place a coordinating ribbon. Leftover material from pant legs can also be transformed into a handle by cutting 1 - 3 inches wide with pinking shears.
