raggy denim quilt
I finished this one yesterday and after washing/drying I think it looks ok. I cut about 30 pair of jeans, all donated, into 6" squares and added a few colored squares of regular cotton for a pop of color. The top is put together rag style, no batting, and then used a pieced backing of scrap flannel. Each square has fmq designs, some random feathers, circles and such....some have ducks, cats, and teddy bears....and some are personal, using designs that relate to his hobbies (quilt is for DH). While it was a very simple quilt, requiring very few brain cells, it was very time consuming to fmq each of the 234 squares and even worse clipping all those edges. I don't think I will make another very soon.

GREAT quilt ... and very pretty kitty. I think your idea to add the colored squares really added the perfect touch to this. Hope DH is happy.
PS...are those llamas in your picture??? Every time i see your avatar, i remember my 3 year old grand-daughter asking me out of the clear blue sky.... "when Skippy (her dog) goes to God, can we get a llama?"
