If you look under "Look what I made this year" you will see the jeans log cabin I made using red, black and white jeans.

So sorry about your machine.
That happened to a friend of mine. She had a repair bill. I always wash it the first time at the laundry mat. It's worth the time and cost. :)

cjmomma, I like how you used the t-shirts as the backing for the quilt. What a great idea!
