A little bias

My friend Geron asked me to do "something" to this $5 pair of Target jeans for her daughter.  Inspired by this patchwork border and these pants, I decided to trim the cuffs up in some patchwork bias tape and with some little bows and vents in the back.

The patch pockets on the front were screaming for something, too.  I detached the top parts, trimmed them in sweet small prints from the bias tape and stitched them back into place.  Soooo cute!!

I predict many more embellished jeans in the near future!
