Jean Quilt

Miss Kaylee has been busy getting projects done for her Personal Progress program.  The first of the summer we drug out all of the old jeans from the basement and started cutting away.  Then yesterday Kaylee decided to pull it all out again and start sewing.  She sewed and sewed and sewed.

AND by the end of the day she had it all sewn together.  It looks awesome!  Here she is modeling her one of a kind quilt!

I’m so proud that she can sit and sew all by herself!

    Super cute! Way to go Kaylee. How big did you make the jean squares?

    The squares were 8 by 8 inches. She picked out waistbands so that she could get pocket pieces that were 8 by 8.

    Thank you! I have been saving jeans for years and this looks like a fun Christmas present for this year!

    I'm so impressed she did that... on her own!! Jeans are NOT an easy material to work with. It looks awesome!

    Did you have to use a different needle for your sewing machine?
