Required Pattern: Recycled Denim Skirt & Purse by Carolyn’s Creative Design  

1 pair of jeans for skirt and purse

Thread to match jeans and fabric

Jean needle if your jeans are a heavy weight  

Note: the amount of fabric will vary on size, height of the person and how many tiers you want!

If you are making it for someone other than yourself measure from the waist to desired length. If you can not measure the person get the measurement of a favorite skirt length.  

Skirt: 1-3 fabrics

Listed below are the amounts used for the models the largest pair of jeans is a junior 7. If you are doing a large size you will have to determine what width of the tier and cut 3 widths instead of just 2 strips per tier. The bottom tier for 3 fabrics I had to cut 5 strips.

Middle tier ~ ¾ yard
Bottom tier ~ 5/8 yard  

Pink with Lace Skirt 2 fabrics

Top tier ~ 3/8 yard
