I snagged a pair of my daughters worn out jeans. I loved the texture and the worn spots. I made a crazy quilt background and top stitched with jeans thread to tie it together. I then rubber stamped it and added perle cotton stitches. The yo yo's are made from Talbots tie fabric and held down with miscellanous buttons. I finished it off with some star beads. Size is about 17x22 and is bound in tie silk.

This is a wonderful piece of art. Such movement and color.
This is intense! I really like it. Who knew you could combine denim and silk?
I love crazy quilting and this is wonderful! What a knockout quilt this would make...and durable too!

What a great use of the pockets and hems. I too like the combination of the denim and silk-a good use of the bag of ties in my stash. Thanks for the inspiration.

This is just wonderful! You have inspired me.
Karen, I love the movement and the great sense of color and contrast in this quilt. It's delightful!
Karen, this is so nice, makes me wish I DID do blue jeans.
