A friend of mine bought a purse that was hand made and the lining was made from an old pair of jeans. Such a great idea, I had to try it myself.
I made this purse a few months ago and the lining was coming loose so it seemed the perfect candidate. I used a pair of jeans my 9 yr old son grew out of and they were the just the right size. I simply cut off the legs and sewed across the bottom. I dropped this into my purse and whip stitched it in place. Simple and so very functional. All the pockets make perfect storage. The little change pocket is where I keep my lip balm. I am so very pleased and thought some of you might like to try this idea too. Have fun and please show me pictures if you do it!
