    Default my 5 minute block quilt
    Last photos of the quilt made from ugly pants found at the thrift shop. This quilt cost me $25.00 for the top: the pants were 50 cents and 4 yrs. of fabric on sale for $5.00 a yard and the cost of the thread. I have not pressed it yet, hence the wrinkled look, but I am excited to show it.

    It measures 57"x 64". The corners are mitered. It is only the top at this point. I think it will go to my sister in NY for her charity's silent auction in Oct.

    Love the yellow. It took a lot of extra material to redeem the ugly pants but the end result is great.

    I really like it! It has great movement and you would never know it started with a pair of unusual pants.
