Recycling Dickies Jeans

How about some recycling? These Dickies jeans first belonged to my husband. The jeans were ripped in the crouch area. Unfortunately for him, beyond repair. The jeans lay in my repair bucket for a very long time. Some time ago I wanted to sew a jeans for Jelle. So I browsed through my fabric stash. I couldn't find a nice fabric. Then I saw my repair bucket and found the Dickies jeans. How cool would it be to make a new jeans out of them? It was a very nice fabric. So I set out to try if there was enough fabric to make a jeans for Jelle. And there was!

I removed the original backpockets which were transformed into the new backpockets. I also carefully removed the waisteband and made it smaller to fit Jelle. I also used the original loops that support the belt. I mimicked the colour scheme of the original jeans. Light blue and dark blue stitchings with small details of red stitchings.

The pattern comes from the Dutch magazine "Knippie". I made the jeans in size 104.

Blue and Green Jeans

This Jeans was made of the same blue fabric as the pockets of the Black Jeans with Blue pockets. The pattern comes from the Dutch magazine "Knippie" and was made in size 104. The Jeans has 4 backpockets and also 4 pockets on the front. All seams are stitched with light and dark green stitchings.

Canvas Trousers

These trousers are made of a cotton canvas fabric in two different shades. The jeans are made in a beige shade and de pockets and kneepads are made in a sand shade of canvas. All seams are stitched with an offwhite stitching. There are also some aqua coloured stitchings. This pattern comes from the Dutch magazine "Knippie". The trousers are made in size 104.
