If youโve got colorful old or outgrown denim taking up room in your closetโor access to a good thrift store or flea marketโyou can turn that unused fabric yardage into a durable one-of-a-kind blanket that your whole family will want to use! If you love your Leviโs, youโll definitely want to add this gorgeous upcycled jeans quilt to your to-make list.
Iโm so impressed by how beautifully this quilt turned out, and Iโm delighted by the challenge of creating a color palette of simple yet bold color block stripes within the limitations of your closet/local garage sales/second-hand stores. It looks like such a fun project!
I could picture how this quilt would turn out in my mind, but the color palette was in the thrift storeโs hands. I used 16 pairs of old pants (some thrifted, some my own), and I couldnโt be more thrilled with how it turned out.
Feeling inspired to stitch? (I think we probably all are!)
Check out this wonderful upcycled jeans quilt tutorial that Amy from Maker Mama shared on Andreaโs Notebook to see how itโs done.
