Help me please! Regarding a frayed denim quilt - Big Big Forums

Electric Chameleon · 11-03-2002, 01:27 AM

I have seen all of these wonderful posts on here lately regarding quilts but have yet to see one that I have been looking for.

It has to do with denim and the way it is sewn together it frays so you have all the seams with frayed denim.

Anyone know how to make it? Where I can go? Anything? I have never quilted before, but I have seen one of these and thought it would be easy enough to make and really wanted to make one for our bed for Christmas.

Any help as usyal is appreciated!

check out the "Quilters What are you Working on?" discussion board (it's under crafts talk) on www.bhg.com (better homes and gardens). Someone on there asked about making a bluejean quilt and got a few helpful answers. I think your denim "rag" quilt question could be answered there.
Good luck.

Thank you!

Do you think it would be okay without the sheet or flannel on the other side? I just wanted to sew the denim together and have it frayed on one side?

Any opinions out there?
