Christmas Rag Quilt

Hello! Very busy around here, but here is my last project.

It was made using cotton and corduroy for the top and flannel for the back, and it has a smaller
piece of cotton batting inside each square.

This kind of quilt is  very easy  to make, since unmatched corners will not show so much :) Perfect for me!

This is after 3 washes. Corduroy makes a LOT of lint. But the quilt is very soft and fluffy.
I love the paper doll fabric, and I think this little quilt looks great with my Christmas decor.

Thanks for stopping by!

Recycled denim blanket

Hello!
Things are slow around here. I am organizing. That's my New Year's resolution.
But,  I will have a cross stitch finish to share soon and a couple of other little projects.
Anyways, I hope that after all this organizing I will be able to make all the stuff  I have planned for the year.
I ordered some cross stitch patterns, and can't wait to start something new. And work on the old ones too. :)

Since I don't have any cross stitch to show you, I decided to share this denim blanket I made using old pants.
It is a very simple one, using big blocks, I even used parts with pockets. It's a very fun blanket!
The seams were clipped to make the "rag quit style". I used red tag denim from Joann for the back.
We use this for picnics and I always get lots of compliments. People stop by to take a look.
So, just an idea for recycling all those jeans you have around the house. Now, I am collecting  old jeans for a new project. Recycled denim is so much fun. Thanks for stopping by.
