So I've been going crazy the last month making garb and other sundries for the SCA event I went to, which means lots of leftover scraps.  I hate throwing anything away, so I came up with a little pouch made of a scrap of leather for the base and a band of linen from something or other.  The bead is one I made in lampworking, works pretty well as a stop.  

 

 Thinking on it, I realized that a good way to use up torn up jeans is to cut off the bottoms and use those as the walls of a sack, just turn down the raw edge and make a new hem, sew on a leather bottom and add a cord!  Minimal sewing and you used up some stuff that might have gotten thrown out.

That looks like a nice beginner project, if they tool the base.
