yayaya baby stuff contained
I started a topic on the board about finding a way to organize my kids toys and stuff in my car. And i got alot of response on making a flap. I didnt have a pattern on how to make one and i was just staring at my oversized jeans and got a bright idea on how to turn them into something I can use! Kewl huh! I hope you guys enjoy this.

is it hard to stitch denim? I remember my grandma once broke a needle on her sewing machine when she was hemming trousers.
