Denim strip quilt

I made this for my daughter-in-law. She is a soccer mom. Literally. They have 2 daughters playing in soccer tournaments this weekend: five soccer games. Since I have to ship this, she won't get this quilt until next week. Just in time for the next chilly weekend weather in Ohio. Six and 8 inch strips from denim pants. Here are the sunflowers.

I'm sure there was a time that I was embarassed for…

You guys! I just finished this beast-of-a-quilt, and it is gorgeous, even for denim! I don't normally do commission quilts, in fact, never. I don't have time. But my sister had a friend who begged to have a quilt made from all his old Levis. I quoted a price that I figured would change his mind, and he accepted! Now, I just needed about 50 hours to do it. At first, they brought over a bag of jeans that had basically one tone of denim. He must love a certain brand! To create any kind of…

This denim quilt (44 x 54) is for our little grandson who just turned 7. He loves to camp, fish and hunt with his Dad. Since I am the "used-denim-pants-receiver" in our family, I have 2 shelves full of denim pants strips--enough for about 12 (60 x 90) quilts. A couple of years ago I took about 6 garbage bags full of denim pants that everyone had given me and cut out all the usable parts--eliminating about half of the bulk of the pants. Here are another dozen pair from my son to cut out…
