I originally had another denim stained glass pattern in mind but, our friend was small so wouldn't have been able to cut any 12" squares (unless I left some leg seams in them which I thought might make the quilt even heavier less comfortable). I saw the idea for this quilt for a similar style but with smaller pieces on The Flemings Nine blog. There doesn't seem to be a pattern for it but, color blocks are pretty popular these days so a quick search will give you plenty of free blocks…

My family and I were at a local restaurant recently and the topic of conversation turned to my rag quilting.

There's a bunch of tutorials and patterns online, but I used the pattern Forever in Blue Jeans by Fons and Porter available at Quilting Daily. I often get asked about the dimensions for this quilt, but I encourage quilters to purchase the pattern from the designer. I decided to sew the cotton fabric, batting and jeans together…

Denim Rag Quilt - #ragquilt #denimquilt #quilt

You can make a charming, super cozy quilt without putting in a ton of time or — wait for it — even really knowing how to quilt? It's shocking, but true, thanks to one quickie weekend project : the rag quilt. Rag quilts aren't actually made of, err, rags. Rather, they get their name from having exposed seams between patchwork squares, which are snipped and frayed to create a “raggedy” look. They're quicker and easier than many traditional quilts because you quilt as you go.
