My thanks to you too. I have been saving old jeans too in the hope of someday making a quilt. I have been collecting colored denim jeans and probably have more than enough right now to make that quilt but who knows when I will ever get around to it!
I have a question, too. What can be done with the rest of the jeans after cutting legs for the quilt? There must be a use for some of the top part of the jeans.
