I made a bluesman quilt back in 1979. I also covered an office chair that the plastic vinyl covering was peeling off. Put pockets on the back of the back rest. Then made a bluesman clothes pin bag from a pair of kids jeans. Also a braided rug which I need to finish the one I made recently. I used to use the old double knit slacks for rugs too. Very durable.
I especially liked the Christmas stocking. Grocery carriers, car organizers and cooler covers to insulate from the sun are other ideas.
Did someone say denim flipflops?
