Today you can find me at my sewing table tackling the boring job of turning our last year jeans into shorts for the summer. I'd much rather be sewing a quilt, but this is a job that needs to be done. To make me feel better about it, I searched out some favorite "Jeans to Shorts" tutorials to share. These tutorials are all creative and different in some way, making a not so fun job into something a bit more enjoyable.
