          s0110xj****Part 1: FIT Evo

          I've had my Jin_s for about a year prior to the contest. 'Future-sized to a W34 [SU1]. 'LUVed the unique texture/weave of the denim_ the mid-rise & relaxed straight cut were a plus. However, the [rider] back pocket placement was not really to my liking, so i put them away after a week's wear.

          'Been procrastinating on a plan to re-do the pockets until HWDC2 got me to finally follow through.

          Re-positioning the back pockets similar to my Yamato 001__ w/c meant moving each pocket a tad lower & closer to the center =the back seam [ie, about an inch, diagonally] has made a world of difference, IMO … apologies, if i offended the LeePro & WranglerPro lovers out there 😉


          Part 2: Jeans Evo

          2y/o= 12mos effective wear= 5 washes + a final double cold wash for the "finals" evo shots__ the double wash amazingly bumped up the fade contrast.

              Here's mine for the final time in this comp but these will be continuing in the DWC

              It's been a pretty up and down 2 years for me while wearing these jeans. Here's hoping the next 2 are bit more stable.

                                The crotch area is the only place that had any work done to it over the two years.  The bright yellow thread is some hand stitching I did to reenforce that area.  You can see a could thin areas that need to be taken care of but this area and a couple where my pants swish is the only real damage

                                    Wow two years has been a long time, here is my favorite pictures/moments through the last couple years.  I've done so much more, but I take so few pictures, I really should do more

                                          Oct 14 - My sister was pregant with her first child, I decided to make him a quilt

                                          Nov 14 - There is a reason little old ladies make quilts, they have nothing but time.

                                          I think the only concert I saw in those two years - Trevor Hall (I went to the syphony once, no pics though)

                                          Dec 14 - Quilt done, wow they take a lot of time.  I hand stitched the entire thing, hand pieced, hand quilted, hand everything, it never touched a machine, turned out pretty good.

                                          Jan/Feb 15 - Vacation - Friends house in Cali

                                          Friends place in Mexico

                                          A place to buy tequila in Mexico, the place was 95%+ tequila, it was probably the single greatest store I've visted in my life (I love tequila, I got away with only buying 8 bottles, which I thought was good)

                                          April 15 - The kid and the quilt

                                          And we are done, been a great two years.
