I made this rag quilt this summer with squares cut from jeans and outdoor fabric, washing both before stitching. I stitched with a size 16 needle and had no problem as long as I went slow. I also made this modernistic mug rug for a swap and have made several for me that have somehow disappeared to neighbor and friends.
