Jeans are just pants with lots of topstitching. I started making the Ginger Jeans months ago sometime in November, but I stopped working on them because I had so much going on and finally picked them up again last weekend. I look forward to seeing your version!Tomasahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12001675806748209852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507269696688990191.post-38326656265416066532017-03-13T19:51:35.504-04:002017-03-13T19:51:35.504-04:00Thank you Elizabeth!Thank you Elizabeth!Faye Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02781186043996633965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507269696688990191.post-45780689277856756922017-03-13T19:51:07.196-04:002017-03-13T19:51:07.196-04:00I hope they are wearable Samina.

I used two 16oz. bottles in the detergent section of my top loader when I did it. Although I washed and dried the denim 3 times, I only used coke in the first wash.
