recycled/repurposed Denim projects
#242
I make rag totes using denium outside and flannel inside. I cut a square of denium from the backside of a pair of jeans so that the front of tote has a real jeans pocket.
I also use old jeans for putting between to squares of W&N to make potholders.

Having said that, make the quilt..you will snuggle into so well...really...I did this for my boys when their dad passed away suddenly from pnuemonia in 2009. Just one week after his 51st birthday. He had not seen his sons in 14 years, but they still loved him and cherish his flannel shirt quilts they own now!

I put a pocket on DGS sweat shirt - he loves it so much I had to do another one so he would change clothes. The other one has a bigger pocket and it is lower so he can get into it.
