I stitch them together and make a little purse. I use the belt loops and add around the top then, run a piece of ribbon thru for decor. You can also find some of the leg to make a shoulder strap for the purse. Maybe even add a flap and it would hold a cell phone.<br />I also save as much as I can of the inside front pockets. My coworker hates how shallow the front pockets are on new jeans. I use what I saved to lengthen her front pockets so they are a bit deeper.
