    Looks great. What did you use for backing? What size are the blocks?

    Very nice. I've been wanting to make one, too, but have been discouraged about everyone's comments that the denim quilts are almost too heavy to handle.

    I am collecting blue jeans now for my own CW. Am interested in what size circles you used. Did you do a straight stitch when sewing down the circle flaps and leave the edges fray? or zigzag for a more finished look? Did the addition of batting make it too heavy? I would love to see a close up pic!

    Terrific!!! Did you do the raw edge method or stitch around the circle then turn it right side out? Looks Great!

    I have always wanted to make a Cathedral Window quilt and never thought of making a jean one. I just finished a jean and flannel rag quilt.
