I love your quilt. I have wanted to make one for awhile but have not really been collecting jeans. Rough estimate-how many would I need for a lap size quilt?

depends on the size of the jeans and the square size you want.I am cutting 8 inch squares and sometimes get 4 squares and sometimes 8 squares on larger sizes.I am saving anything that will make a 5 inch square and up and the rest is going in the burn bag.
