Hey folks,  This 'ible for the SEW WARM contest can help others (yes, you can help kids learn!).  I work with Newton North High School Greengineers,  greengineers.wikispaces.com/, steering the algae to biofuel project.  One of their other fabulous projects is recycling plastic bags into reusable totes.  The sewing machine that is the grand prize for SEW WARM, will be used for this project.  So please vote, for the kids. 

This instructable will show you how to add fuzzy warm lining to the front pockets of your pants.  I work outside a fair bit in the winter, and it's great to be able to put my hands in fuzzy warm pockets.  Also, it's very easy to loose your mittens (and your glittens) but it's very hard to loose your pockets.

I used the pockets out of an old pair of sweat pants I used in another project you can salvage pockets out of and fleece, flannel or sweat pants.  Also, if you're a bit creative, just sew a pouch the same shape as your pocket and sew it in as explained in this instructable!
