Miserliness makes people creative
I have two boxes of old jeans - much more than I need for crafts. In spite of that I always try to spare them. This time I had to I rip the pocket off to obtain the right piece size, but to my displeasure the fabric had a different shade underneath . But there is nothing bad that would not turn out to be good - I found a decorative pocket from another trousers and use it to cover the darker spot. And it looks much better than just the uniform jeans!
