Wrap Scrap Trousers

Just a quick post to say I am now creating wrap scrap trousers, couple of examples are below
pop over to Facebook Dark Star Designs or email me if you'd like your wrap scrap turned into clothing.
You tell me what you would like, I'll tell you how big a scrap you need or if we need to be a bit creative how we can piece things together. You post scrap to me, I sew and then post your newly created item back to you.
