pattern for using blue jeans

Debbie7356,

Someone posted this link somewhere else recently and I had it bookmarked. I haven't used the pattern, but it is cute.

You can do a rail fence pattern with different colors of jeans or even a rag quilt with squares.

A while back, someone on this forum did a quilt that looks like cathedral windows, by cutting circles from denim and folding the edges back. If I recall, she used old jeans. I'll see if a search of our archived photos turns it up...

Gack, I couldn't find it! Anyone remember this one and care to bump it back to the top; I'd like to see the photo again, too!

DeniAZ, THAT'S IT!!
Thank you SO much for posting that link! When I saw a completed "circle jeans" quilt here on the forum, it was an immediate "gotta make one"! project. Now I have instructions...!

I am bookmarking the page right away...what a great way to use charms and larger scraps! Would make a neat memory quilt too!

Thanks again for sending this!!
