Frugal pants fix
My little girl came home with a hole in the knee of her FAVORITE pants. She was nearly heartbroke. I've been telling her that they were getting too short so we'd have to hand them down anyway. I decided to patch the knee with a cute pink square to salvage them for a few more wearings. She got so many complements on my silly little patch job that it I got to thinking, if I sewed a ruffle on the bottom that we could make them last at least until summer. I didn't have to go buy anything...everything came from my stash of seldom used fabric and notions.

Gotta love those ruffles. My girl would be find them so "totally awesome." Would also work well on a jeans jacket. . .
