I love it!!! I am going to save my DH old jeans and flannel shirts (when he retired he retired his suits,dress shirts and ties), he even wears them on holidays as he feels he has earned the right to dress the way he wants. He will not let me make a tie quilt as he LOVES his ties, so this will be a great idea. I wish I would have done this to the wool suits that I have donated as he "outgrew" them. This is a great way for my 4 R's "recycle, reuse, regift, repurpose" commitment that I try to live by.

OMGosh this was soooooooo easy. !!!!!! This was a sample run.. I used scrap fabrics on hand for the sqs..
I used my GO to cut out 5inch circles..E-A-S-Y !!!!! and I used a 3.5 fussy cut template to mark the lines in the circle- Worked great !!! and I used my 3.5 go die for the sqs.. well they still seem a lil big so I may have to cut them down to 3 1/4- Im still tweaking that part... I used denim thread and a denim needle and my sewing machine sewed thru it like butter.YAY!!!!..
This sample doesn't have batting - I and really thinking about putting Warm & natural as its not heavy at all but then again the picture below is only 4 sqs sewn together.. hmmmm.. more tweaking Iguess..
Sooooooooo?? Whatcha think??
