What is the most interesting denim and flannel raw edge quilt you've ever
made? Or seen. I need to make one sometime. It's been promised for years,
but I can't get motivated. Help?

Howdy!
Many years ago I used denim and muslin to make a quilt for my dad,
in the "lap quilting" or "quilt as you go" style.
I drew and traced pictures on the muslin blocks of things that he
did, places he'd been, things he liked, embroidered them w/ DMC.
Used a very thin poly batt (that's all that was available at the time)
and backed each block w/ a denim square. Minimal quilting, by hand, of
show/hide quoted text
course. <g> That sucker weighed a ton! He loved it.
Mind you, he was living in way-south Tx. then, always kept the quilt
show/hide quoted text
on the end of their bed. <g> I always said he lived down there
because he liked to sweat. <g>
Next time I left out the poly batt. And the denim.

had diff colors of denim (from light blue to dark blue to a purply
burgundy), wide ricrac and slapliqued flowers in courderoy and plaid
flannels on the back ... don't know that it was a pattern anywhere. It was
a show and tell at a quilting bee.

I started one in flannel and just couldn't get into it so gave the pieces to
someone that likes to make them.

Karen - my raggy denim (still a WIP because it's too hot to quilt denim &
flannel right now) can be seen in my webshots album. I used both blue &
black denim, and the backing is a mottled black/grey flannel (which you
can't see in the pics). It will be bound with strips of black denim, also
left raggy & tied with black crochet cotton.
