Yep sitting in the bath, and then bleaching them. Anything to get them worn in.

I was telling someone the other day, I had got my jeans just as I wanted them, and was going to meet a boyfriend somewhere in London, and had to travel on the bus. I sat on the long seat next to the conductor and my knee came straight through the material. :-0 :-0

Now is is fashionable, but back then it was mortifying. :-D :-D

I had to remove one of the back pockets to patch them. :-D :-D

You can use whatever media you like Island. The idea is to let the text be a large part

of the finished work. ;-) ;-)

Oh yes….remember sitting in the bath wearing them so they would shrink…which they did in those days.

Also dipping them in bleach :-D :-D
