Quilt

I made this quilt for my best friend Justine. It took me a day to cut the pieces and another day to sew it all together! --I was determined to finish it :) I cut 3 long rectangular pieces (different widths), which make a square when sewn together. Each square is about 12-18 inches by 12-18 inches! I can't remember! Anyway, I made it 4 squares across and 5 squares down. On the back is a quilted fabric with batting attached to it, which I sewed on each side and then tied in every corner with yarn.. The pictures aren't as good as the real deal! That is Justine holding up the blanket :)

materials

8-10 different fabric designs, scissors, sewing machine, embroidery/quilting needle, yarn

Jean/Denim Quilt 2 (bigger and better!)

Jacob and I combined our jeans and even bought some ginormous jeans from Goodwill to make this huge quilt. I wanted to give it the frayed look so I did the sewing and cutting on the outside. This quilt is perfect for a queen or king size bed. Can you see the design/pattern we made?? *It helps if you have different shades of blue jeans! :D

materials:

sewing machine (we broke 2 needles during this project! i suggest a strong sewing needle!), sharp scissors, tons of old/unused jeans, fabric or bedsheet (to put on back)

This picture of Jacob and the quilt was taken before we sewed on the back side

the backside of the quilt matches with our pillows

Jean/Denim Quilt 1

An older jean quilt I made in 2004. It's pretty small. Maybe good for a twin size bed. Or a throw blanket

materials:

old/unused jeans, sharp scissors, sewing machine, batting, fabric (you can by fabric with batting attached to it... which is what I did!)

Seashell Quilt

I made 7 or 8 inch squares for this blanket. It took me longer to make because I had to go back and forth to the store for more fabric!

materials:

sewing machine, batting, fabric

Jacobs Quilt

This is a quilt I made back in 2003 late August. It only took me a 1 1/2 weeks to make. I was in a hurry and wanted to get in done before he left for his mission :)

materials:

sewing machine, fabric, batting
