Lifequest22 said at 9:07 p.m. on Jan 23, 2008: Great layout of these jeans. Looks like you got them sewn back together, Anna.
Decoy said at 9:10 p.m. on Jan 23, 2008: Thank you all for commenting! While I was trying to figure out if I was to "save" them once again with the sewingmachine I grabbed my camera. (I didn't bring the tripod though...) And instead of finish the sewing, I finished a Tabblo of the shots! =)
SterlingGray said at 9:14 p.m. on Jan 23, 2008: I don't understand it either, but I guess because it is our favorite, otherwise we probably could care less. LOL Great set, very cool.
Hhwind said at 4:19 a.m. on Jan 24, 2008: Great tabblo, beautiful layout if it is not torn a bit than its not the favourite jeans forever
Tishfish said at 6:25 a.m. on Jan 24, 2008: Maybe because we wear them too much. Nice shots!!
Leftofcenter said at 7:31 a.m. on Jan 24, 2008: you can still wear them, all torned up, thats what makes them your favorite. very cool layout and idea!
Mirella said at 7:40 a.m. on Jan 24, 2008: Because now they can be "a la mode", Dont'you see how much new jeans that look old do they cost ? Try to sell them...........
Eduardo.affonso said at 7:55 a.m. on Jan 24, 2008: I guess it happens because Murphy's Law hasn't been revoked yet. My favorite pair of jeans is so torn I just can't wear it any longer. But it's perfect when I'm home alone, and want to feel comfortable. Your jeans are pretty new compared to mine...
Appropos said at 9:49 a.m. on Jan 24, 2008: that is one very comfortable looking jeans ....great stuff

Jantass said at 3:20 p.m. on Jan 24, 2008: I belong to the persons that it uses always jeans, it has a beautiful texture and is the better thing that exists .. I am charmed with your great tabblo creativity and design
Ktz said at 3:23 p.m. on Jan 24, 2008: Miss Sixty makes the best denim... I fear mine are on their way to a similar state. Good luck with the repairs!
Magedimages said at 3:28 p.m. on Jan 24, 2008: C'est ça un jeans !
Krisu said at 3:55 p.m. on Jan 24, 2008: I hope you could fix your jeans also. ;-)

I remembered an old David Letterman "Late Show" with Tracey Ullman on as a guest. She was wearing a denim "coat" that had been sewn from a fashion designer's worn jeans. I was able to find something on the web on it. It's a description of Ullman's appearance on the show.
............................................................ This has been a good year for her [British comedienne Tracey Ullman], for she got to work not only with Woody Allen but also Robert Altman on Ready To Wear, which used to be Pret-A-Porter. Dave asks if PAP is French for RTW. Yes, it is, responds Tracey, but she knew he would know that because he is a man of the world. The title change was ... from the PR people thinking that people in America are stupid, that they'd think it was a foreign film with subtitles. Dave asks if the movie is about the fashion industry, which it is. Tracey says she really loves fashion. In fact, she tells us that she's wearing something by Jean-Paul Gaultier right now. This coat was made from his old jeans. In effect, she's wearing his groin on her breasts. She even points out the "willy wear", where the denim was worn away. ............................................................ http://rreini.com/tracey/talk_shows/1994.htm
I remember Ullman proudly pointing to the "willy wear spot" on her chest.
Decoy said at 6:46 p.m. on Jan 24, 2008: I guess everyone has a pair of favorite jeans, and I guess the Murphy's Law says that pair has to get torned!
LatentE - thanks for your story about Tracey Ullman and the fashion jeans-coat! I can understand why it came into your mind! I guess my name isn't "good" enough to make a coat out of it, for anyone else to buy/wear! =)
Charlespop said at 8:17 p.m. on Jan 24, 2008: Super cool !
Memotions said at 5:37 a.m. on Jan 25, 2008: Such a simple subject! This really has punch. You can feel the denim and I love all your different angles. Gives us a chance to really see it. ....and it is SO true!
Pattymaryclare said at 1:36 p.m. on Jan 25, 2008: Excellent uh...er 'PATCHWORK' designed tabblo format here! haha!!! lol pmc
Flinkfar said at 2:50 a.m. on Jan 26, 2008: Cool tabblo. IMHO there is no such thing as "worn out jeans" (sometimes my wife disagrees)
Royceufc said at 2:05 p.m. on Jan 26, 2008: It's true, there is nothing quite as comfortable as your favorite pair of jeans. They are worth a little TLC!
Ebucar said at 2:30 p.m. on Jan 26, 2008: It reminds me that I need a new pair myself. As soon as I get rid of the extra pounds, of course...Cool tabblo, Anna, as usual.
Umauma said at 2:33 p.m. on Jan 27, 2008: clever girl!
Lenar68 said at 2:51 p.m. on Jan 27, 2008: Very cool tabblo!
Ingmarsan said at 7:05 p.m. on Jan 27, 2008: I like your jeans!
SteveBrisendine said at 9:17 a.m. on Jan 28, 2008: I just leave the rips in ... for now, at least. Great color and textures here.
Chiloedream said at 3:36 p.m. on Jan 28, 2008: Oui certains jeans sont comme une seconde peau, on éprouve le plus grand mal à s'en défaire. Merci Anna. Salut mon amie.
Mashpee_Paula said at 4:19 p.m. on Jan 28, 2008: Love my old jeans too!! Super picture, Anna!! Thanks! :)
JuDeck said at 7:30 p.m. on Jan 29, 2008: great pictures and sewing work....very impressed...i've always used the iron on patches that curl after a couple of washings
Wlk68 said at 4:06 p.m. on Jan 30, 2008: Dang, you totally stole my idea!! LOL I've been thinking about doing something similar for a while now. This is fantastic!! You can really tell that that is a much loved pair of jeans. :-)
Decoy said at 4:19 p.m. on Jan 30, 2008: This reminds me that I forgot to finish the mending, they are still close to the sewingmachine! =)
Wendy, do your tabblo! =) No jeans are the other pair alike!! I had so much fun, so I would love to do another jeanstabblo for myself in the future...
SeánanForbes said at 11:49 p.m. on Jan 30, 2008: This tabblo could be an ad campaign.
