The denim rag is for "Soon to be" SIL (Tony). It is/was a Xmas present that didn't get complete, he opened a his gift of 1/4 completed. :oops: DH (Tom) had asked why his 'initial' was on some one else quilt?

The Thread Catchers are door prizes at retreat in a couple of weeks. If you are there . . . you could win one. :mrgreen:

wow look at all those thread catchers....you have been busy...very nice

Oh, I want that purple one with there'd flower,lol. Good work!Lol at your husband...

Nice work!

Great work. Did you put something on the back of the denim quilt? I want to do one but someone said you don't do that and she'd never sewn in her life. So, I stopped. I love the look for using it in the car but a flannel backing is my fav on everything else. Thanks for sharing you beauties and for your expert answer.

Blessings,
Ruth

Do you have a pattern for the thread catchers? I love the ones you made!

Gee grammy .. This makes me want to go to the retreat! I love your thread catchers!

I used flannel. BUT not as a 'back', the denim (old jeans) was cut into 6.5" squares as was the flannel. I put the denim and flannel wrong sides together. I work them as one (in another denim rag I sewed a X thru the block), you just sew. And then lots of clipping.

I love your thread catchers and would like to make one for myself. Can you tell us what pattern you used?

love the thread catchers
