Jean Leg Autograph Pillows

Yesterday, 11 teens showed up to make jean leg autograph pillows for the end of the school year. Thanks to Sellers staff and patrons for donating all of the jeans and the fiberfill stuffing! We used the straightest legs to make the pillows rectangular. We just cut off the cuff, fringed the ends, cutting strips about 3/4" apart and about 5 inches deep. Then we knotted the fringe on one end together, ironed on an "Express Yourself" patch, stuffed it, and knotted the other end. It was easy and cute! At the end, everyone was given a Sharpie to take home with their pillow. Some people collected signatures from friends at the event, while others saved it for school.

Getting an early start on the signatures.

Look! Pillows!

Finished products.

What to do with leftover jean parts...?!
