Now that is a bluejean quilt! Wow, how neat!

I use the pockets to make pot holders. They turn out really nice. The front pocket can make an oven mit,the back pocket makes a really cute slip on your hand pot holder. Of course, they need to be lined and properly prepared for heat.

Everyone is so creative.
I'm looking forward to my son wearing out some of his jeans to make some of these projects.

Wow, I'm impressed! Love the quilt. I'm also from Kansas, Northeast corner, Oskaloosa. What part are you from?

I have seen a picture of bibs made with the denim.

I want to make a tool caddy to hang on the wall and put often used tools in.

HI! Would you please tell me how you make a rag rug from denim jeans? Thank you!

WOW! Who would have thought an old pair of jeans could turn into all this neat stuff. I'm going to be cutting up old jeans in the future.
