Here's a D9P I made. My very first top! My sister had a ton of jeans in her closet. I'm so glad I made this quilt instead of sending the jeans to Salvation Army. One of these days I'm going to finish it and give it to one of her kids.

I have made several denim quilts. They are wonderful for keeping in the trunk of the car.

Probably won't get to do one. I worked with denim once for a friend and it just wasn't my cup of tea with the weight of the denim. What a great quilt for keeping in the car. Loved the use of the variegated thread.

Keep them coming! I love all that have been posted but the circle patriotic caught my eye. I still have boxes of cut up denim! My sister had 4 boys and they went thru jeans. Some I mended for them and later I got them given back and I cut out the good parts to put in my denim box. Someday. :)

BTW: I use my oldie but goodie singer for stitching denim. It has a much stronger motor to stitch thru all that weighty denim. I also use a denim needle and went thru several of them when making denim throws for my kids cars one year.

One of my 1st quilts I made down in Florida for a couple young boys, grandkids of my beau at the time. And yes, they are very heavy. No batting in these, just flannel on the back with various blue jeans and embroidery on the fronts. And yes, one is Cory and the other is Cody. Both loved hot rods too. Used decorative stitching on the machine for the quilting.
