Denim quilt Farmhouse advertising patches

Our son-in-law was saving his worn-out denim pants, saying he was going to make a quilt some day. Well, that was many years ago and I guess he is still saving his denim pants.

In the meantime, I found this beautiful denim patchwork quilt at a craft show and gave it to him for Christmas several years ago. 
 
 
 It is extremely well made. Size is about 4' x 6' including the fringe.  
Very heavy even for a lap quilt.
Has great Farmhouse patches. 

Enjoy the pictures ...

It has denim patches on the back as well. The artist did a great job of using the pockets on the back. 

Notice the fringe edges on the squares. 
 









Wish I could say I made it ... but that would be a lie ... 

Just wanted to show it to you.

Blessings.

  2. I cannot decide which side is my favorite. The patches are very pretty - espeiially Nibbles, but I think the ragged pockets win!
