This took me almost a year to make since I took the old denims apart. There is no backing or batting to it...just the denims and scrap fabric. It is large enough that it completely covers my old style queen size water bed and still hangs over the edges. The center squares are the pockets of levis :D

That is one awesome quilt! Love the accent of the center squares with the inside of the Levi pockets.

Terrific! I have been saving jeans to do one of these. Was it hard to do? Any advice for some one just starting out? How did you get the ragged edges? Did you clip to your seam line or just let it unravel naturally? Thanks for any input you can give me!
