Underwater Jeans


Tucker has recently realized that he's not supposed to wear girls' clothes, but it's been hard for him. Boys' pants are jeans or brown, nary a jewel to be seen. So after watching him vacillate between yet another pair of tan cargo pants and embroidered pink flowers and butterflies, I decided to emboider a pair of his jeans. He *loves* these. Of course they now have holes in the knees, but this flashy dresser doesn't mind.



Incidentally, we did come home from the store with one pair of pants: red cordoroys with ruby jewels in each button and metal gromit thing. That's not girls' clothes.

These are awesome! How hard is embroidering through denim? I love them!

These are really cool. Did you have a pattern or free form it? The world needs more embroidered jeans.

Embroidering through denim wasn't tough at all. They aren't the thickest denim, but it didn't seem any harder than anything else.

Except for seaweed, it's all Sublime Stitching patterns. I'm not nearly cool enough to draw that stuff.
