    This is for our 3 (soon to be 4) year old niece in Indiana.

    Approx: 55" x 65"
    Pieced in quadrants, It was fun to design and not too terribly difficult to manage on my machine until the last seam - the middle one!
    (...and I highly recommend using needles meant for denim/heavy fabric!)

    It's heavy and she might need a tow truck to drag it around, but it should keep her warm. :)

    Now... one more of these (with "boy" colors) to make for our nephew..


    P.S. These quilts eat thread like there's no tomorrow.
    Stock up. ;)

    Great denim quilt. I love the variegated thread you used in the applique. She's going to love her new quilt.

    WOW!! They are BOTH absolutely stunning !! Your zig zag stitches look perfect especially with the variegated thread. I like the placement that you did with the light and dark denim. I did something similar on the back of a charity rag rug quilt.
    A Good Friend, like an old quilt, is both a Treasure and a Comfort
