My effort was somewhat simpler - although hand-stitching into denim isn't easy, I managed to do it in an afternoon.
As I've mentioned in previous posts, I really like the way denim ages and for me it's an obvious choice for recycling but I was very amused recently when I picked up a pair of new jeans, which my nephew had left here to be hemmed. I said that I must do something with them and 4-year-old Emma beamed up at me, "Make a postcard?" I usually let people wear their jeans a few times before I start trying to turn them into something else. After all, they need to be worn and washed repeatedly to get that wonderful unevenly faded effect. :)

A lovely postcard for your collection. You were very brave to do the hand stitching on the denim but it is very effective, and very neat.
What Emma said made me laugh. She obviously knows you too well!
