Project Complete!

I took on too many things at once, as usual, and finally finished this heinous project. For a few years now, old jeans have been piling up in my closet for the express purpose of making one of those oh so cute denim quilts. Just about the time I decided to re-read the Twilight series, I also decided it was time to make the quilt. We hang out at softball and T-ball games every weekend so I thought this was a good thing for sitting on. So, I spent hours cutting up the jeans, getting rid of parts that can't be used, making my fingers numb (which I still can't feel my pointer finger). I found some nice red flannel and set to work cutting and sewing. I will never make another one of these dang things!!! After hours and hours of cutting, sewing, snipping, washing, and drying, it's a kid sized quilt!!! It was meant to be a picnic quilt for the whole family, but it's maybe only 5x6 feet. But it turned out cute. I had a few spots that didn't line up and it was so dang frustrating! The sewing talent that my mom possesses did not get passed on with my gene structure! Oh well, the kids think it's really cool and I'm just glad it's done and now I can finish reading.
