Jeans quilt for her son and daughter-in-law
The quilt was for my son (the handsome dude in photo!) and his darling wife of
just one year....they loved it. I machine quilted it with zig zag
lines.....about 4 sewing lines in each block, going the way the seams go but
not in the ditch....just divided, by eye, the area to hold it down evenly. It
has an old sheet blanket inside and a striped chambray-type backing. Though it
is heavy, I decided not to leave out that middle layer because it was designed
for a picnic quilt to throw on the damp grass to watch fireworks, etc. My DIL
cuddled up under it and said, "This is not going on the ground!" I
wish I had better pics of the four corners. I can take them next time I see
them. Each pocket is different. I've saved them for years. The bandanas added
a colorful touch...fuchsia, gold, bright blue and red, I think.
