    Nice quilt and amusing story to go with it. I made one years ago and that was the first and last jeans quilt. Very heavy!

    I think the rag jean quilts are so neat, I've made####'s ones what I like is when you have finished sewing the blocks together the quilt is done ,OH! except the seem clipping.
    Good job..

    Your woeful story sounds funny, but are you really over the job thingy? Hope so! Hope you get another "happy" job!
    The placement turned out quirky and very sweet. Great job!

    I think it looks as good as any I've seen in a catalog. I saved some jeans and have jeans squares, too. It's way on the back burner though.

    Ok, fellow Texan, I need to make one. I also have lots and lots of jeans legs that are not cut into squares yet. I've made a couple of jeans quilts a few years ago, love how heavy and warm they are. When I get it made and ready to clip, I'll let you know so you can do that part! lol

    It's on my list too, I need to make 2 for the 2 GD's out of DH's jeans and flannel shirts. I told them
    they could take them to concerts and sit on them....by the time I get them done, they might have to
    do the clipping...lol I even have those spring loaded scissors for the clipping.
