I wanted to make some new jeans with the leftover denim from another project and this is it! I used McCall’s M6610 for the jeans and Burdastyle #106 2/2011 jersey top pattern. The McCall’s pattern was very simple to follow and I really recommend it. I did alter it to fit like skinny jeans otherwise the end result was too big in the legs.
1 and 3/4 yards of denim, two spools of thread, one 7 inch zipper, 1.5 yards of jersey, one dungaree button

Thank you! I buy the denim from JoAnn’s Fabrics out here in the US. If you go online, you can probably find their site and you’ll see they have a decent selection of light colored denim.
