Hello March!

I'm so glad that February is over. I love the winter weather, but this is one I will not miss.
I can't wait to see some of these out in my garden!

This is what I'm working on now. Any one have tips on making a quilt from denim?
Happy Quilting!

I've never did a quilt with denim - some bags and vests. Here is a good site:

Or use your google search engine for denim quilt tutorials - there are several.

I've made stacks of quilts from denim.

Make sure you use a proper denim needle for sewing. Watch yourself when you are sewing over multiple seams due to the bulk. I enjoyed working with denim because it's heavy weight and lays nicely. It rags up well too if you're making that kind of quilt.

Enjoy!
