Beautiful...a few years ago I cut up old jeans and made a king size quilt for the bed...since its so heavy it didn't need any batting, I found a sheet at the local goodwill, a king size and thats the backing...its very warm, in the winter we just toss a light comforter over it, in the summer I have another lighter quilt we use...nothing fancy for the denim one, just 6 in squares with some of the pockets....I couldnt quilt it so I used yarn to hold it together...with cats and washing I will have to replace the yarn soon, but it holds up pretty good...
This site is wonderful...I look forward to all the ideas and recipes!!
