My avatar pic is my daughters "Peace, Love & Denim" made from the whole families old jeans I dug out of the attic. She wanted a huge peace symbol on a quilt made from denim. So this is what I came up with. She loves it and it was a huge hit at cheer camp last summer! It is a faux cathedral window pattern I ran across on the net and each colored inset is flannel. Very heavy and warm she says.

It took almost 2 months to finish due to a small problem with finding more variegated thread to sew the flaps(windows) down. I went thru 2 spools in less than an hour one day so had to wait 3 weeks to locate more. grrr! Ended up finishing a few rows with different shades of pink and some purple I had laying around.
