I must have hit the jean quilt jackpot a year ago. I answered an ad on our local Craigslist for a girl giving away favric that belonged to her deceased grandmother. For $15 I got a huge huge huge bin of pre washed, precut 4 1/2 inch squares of jean material. This girl told me that her grandmom would shot their local goodwill, Salvation Army, scavage from relatives when their kids got a whole in the knee of a pair of jeans, and any place else she could get old jeans from...she was going to make a rag quilt "one day". Unfortunately, for her, that one day never came. I'm so sorry for her loss in losing her grandmom but I'll tell you, her grandma must have been a busy lady....I have a rag quilt in my future plans...
