Jeans + Fleece = Awesome Quilt!

I've been blogging about making quilts out of jeans and fleece. While I was working on the latest one, I was also sewing together a lot of denim that looked like this ... (And you can't tell it from this photo, but those denim stripes are each about 16" long) ...

I couldn't really blog about it at the time, because this one was a birthday present for my oldest daughter, who DOES read my blog! 

Lots of diagonal quilting ...

And around the edges, lots of cute girl-y denim details ...
