    I have friends who are going to be soooo jealous! They've wanted something made out of the Crown Royal logos, but nearby quilters (me included) haven't had the guts to try anything, believing that the fabric won't hold up. Did you reinforce it with anything? I could make some happy friends with this idea!

    I didn't reinforce it. I was told that it will loose its color when washed .. so dry clean only. It is more for look that use.... but imagine what people will say when they see it on the back of the chair or sofa. The pictures don't do it justice.. it looks real classy, but most of all it looks ... MANLY!

    Pretty darned good, Dawn. My son has been wanting me to make a quilt out of CR bags for over a year now. Too bad he doesn't have the bags, lol. You gave me some pretty good ideas when he does get them. Hmmmmm, do they make beer bags? I'm sure he would have plenty of those. LOL
