Erica's Old Jeans quilt




I used to save the kids jeans (and some of their dad's) and cut them into squares to make quilts with. Erica wanted a quilt made out of the old jeans. I didn't have enough to do an entire quilt with jeans so I purchased some plaid fat quarters to put with the denim squares. I used a variation of the around-the-world pattern alternating the gold and red plaids. Then I put two large borders on it to get it to the twin size I wanted. This one is backed with red minky....soooooo soft! I used warm-n-natural batting in it as well. It is a  great, heavy, comfy quilt! A quilt you can truly wrap yourself up in and feel warm, cozy, and loved!
