This is the second quilt that I have finished for Christmas. Two to go...Jake's quilt is almost finished(working on the binding). Zac's quilt has 4 or 5 blocks done. I'll share those when they are finished.
For Ryder's quilt I cut my denim into pieces that were the same width, but different lengths. I sewed the pieces right side together to make long strips and then sewed the long strips wrong sides together. SO...the quilt will have shaggy stripes. Make sense? Doesn't make much sense to me either. Anyway, I backed it with some fun shaggy minky and sewed the top, batting and back together along each side of the shaggy stripe. It is a nice warm rugged quilt. Perfect for the 18 month old who will be destroying..I mean loving it!

So cute Amy. Ryder will "love" it. Wish we were going to see you guys for Christmas or anytime soon.
Thank you for posting your photos. I'm just looking for ideas for using up my stack of old jeans and came across your post. I'm planning on trying out some sort of denim quilt and like the idea of doing the pieces right sides together and the strips wrong sides.
