    Okay so someone asked for pictures of our 1st quilt, this was mine. My dad wanted a denim quilt to use when camping and this is what I made. I cut up all of his old work jeans. He said it was way too nice to use camping and I think he only used it once or twice just to show it off to the family. I think he was expecting more like all the legs just sewn straight together HAHAHA. Well daddy past away a year ago and so it's mine now. I'm going to use the heck out of it, pic nic blanket. It's so heavy. I had no idea what I was getting into when I started this quilt but, it was fun to make.
