I made a ragged edge quilt with denim and plaid flannel. My DH took it to the house we are building in Maine and he loves it on the cold nights.

I plan on making each of my kids a jean quilt out of their jeans, from growing up. so far I have 2 done.. only 9 more to go...haha. I haven't had any problems, I use heavy needles and heavy thread. I really enjoy working with jean material.

My 9 year old grandson wanted a denim quilt like his big brother's. Which was made over 20 year ago. I had saved the backs of the legs and below the knee on the front. Light, dark and medium denim. Cut them to 7, 8, 9 inch widths using the rotary cutter and ruler. We made the quilt in two sessions. He learned to use the sewing machine so quickly. We lapped the front over the back 1 inch and then he sewed 1/2 inch from the edge with a fancy stitch (so it would hold better).Used the quilted portion of an old mattress pad so no quilting was necessary.

I have made several jean quilts. I prefer to make rag quilts and back them with flannel. When you sew your squares together, you are finished. Well all but the washing, drying and fraying them. You can't wear them out, kids and teens alike love them.

Haven't made any jean quilts, but I use recycled jeans to make jackets. I tear strip the jeans, sew the pieces together with a decorative stitch and line with colorful (or matching blues) cotton fabric. If I ever figure out how to post a photo, I'll do so.

How great your Denim Faux Cathedral Windows Around the World is. Thanks for sharing the site to get the pattern and for showing us your quilt. I really like it. :-D

Beautiful! Thanks for the link. I have printed it out and now my old jeans have purpose!

I am making a denim quilt from denim dresses. I went to the thrift store and bought all the great looking dresses that were denim. Because there is more material, I can cut larger squares. 10 inch squares and I am backing it with a blue batik flannel. I'm making it rag so that I don't have to bind that denim or quilt the whole quilt. I just quilt each block as I go. I'm not using any batting. Once in a while one of the thrift stores around here has an 88 cent special on all clothes. That's when I picked up my denim.
