I too recycle jeans to make quilts...yes they are heavy, but the grandkids love them. The more they are washed, dried, and loved, the softer they become. Your quilts are the best I've seen. Your friend will be so appreciative of your hard work!

Those are very nice!

I love them both but the triangle one is the easy one and I have jeans cut up. I like your idea better then doing a rag quilt from jeans. Thanks for the new idea and the great pictures. You did a fantastic job.

That's amazing! I think that is teh best jean quilt I have ever seen. Great use of color!

I too have been saving up denim from jeans for some time. I want to overdye them with colors before making them into lap quilts for the car.

You idea of a celtic design is the best! I love the quilts you made. Thanks so much for sharing.

I have never seen a more beautiful quilt made from Jeans!! You are a denim artist. Both quilts are lovely. What did you use for the backing?

Beautiful! I'll bet this one lasts forever, just as all quilts should. ;)
