In 2001, my sister and I each had a child graduating from high school and we decided to make a quilt for each of them as a gift. I was going through a bit of a slump in my sewing so I let my sister pick the pattern. She had this great pattern for denim quilts and thought that would be a good choice for her son and my daughter to take to college and since I had no better idea it was decided. We got together at her house and got the two tops made in a day or two and though both of the graduates were in and out of the house, neither had a clue.
Many fellow quilters have asked for information about the way they are put together over the years including one request on my last post. I was hoping I had already done a tutorial here but looking back quickly did not reveal one so here goes...
The pattern was adapted from the pattern for the cover quilt on Kaffe Fassett's book Glorious Patchwork. I am not sure who adapted the pattern for denim but it was inspired. I have changed the pattern a little to make it easier for this method, but it can be done as printed in the book.
The basic method here is to put a strip of black between each block of denim. The beauty of this is that you are never sewing denim to denim so the seams don't get too bulky. You need to practice with your machine to get the right seam allowance. I have found that if I use my 1/4" foot for this quilt the pieces don't match up as they should so I use the regular foot on my Pfaffs and sew more of a true 1/4" seam as opposed to a scant 1/4".
My first thought after I got the pattern was to use the sleeves that I cut off the twill coverall's that my husband wears for work. I have always saved them (I know, a little crazy) and he has had grey, forest green, cadet blue and navy blue coveralls over the years but that looked pretty boring so I went to thrift stores and fabric stores and found some twill prints that tied them all together. This is the one I made for my husband using up the last of my twill pieces (at that time) and as you can see I only had 2", 4" and 6" pieces left.
The best thing about this pattern that makes a 52" X 56" quilt is that it can be easily adapted to make a larger quilt or to use different pieces if you don't have the correct number of pieces of the various sizes from the jeans you want to use. It is all based on a 2" grid. The pattern starts in the middle with a 12" square and then rows are added similar to a log cabin block.
Here is one I made for a friend using jewel tone quilting fabric. Love this one!!!

The original graduation quilts and my king-sized quilt were professional machine quilted by a friend. Then for the next few years I tied the quilts until I got brave enough to machine quilt them on my trusty Pfaff 1222's.
If you have any questions, or would like me to email the pattern to you, just email me.

1 – 200 of 1537 Newer› Newest»What a great explaination! Once you said it was based on a log-cabin layout I could really see how it all came together. It sounds like you have had alot of fun with this idea over the years! And what pretty quilts. Cheers! Evelyn
Thanks Evelyn. They are fun and also quick and easy once the denim is cut. It is to the point that I can sew one in a day and if my legs hold out I can even baste and quilt it in the same day. Of course that means I have to stay away from the computer! :-)
I have just found your blog and enjoyed it
The denim quilts are lovely
What great quilts! The best use of worn jeans that I've seen in a long time. Happy New Year!
I really like your Denim Quilts. I am inspired : ) do u do tutorial with them? Jessisca from geneleenloire at yahoo.com.
Hi Lucy,
These quilts are so beautiful I just wanted to say thank you for sharing this wonderful idea. Just finished cutting my squares yesterday; can't wait to get it sewn today. I plan to make at least 4 for my kids for Christmas. I have looked long and hard to find a pattern I like and this just fits the bill!
Thanks again,
Barbara
Hi Alicia, I have just found your blog, and I am hooked! Love your quilts!

Awesome quilts! You mentioned machine quilting on your Pfaff 1222. Mine was handed down to me years ago, and I'm just beginning to realize what a wonderful machine it is.
Do you have any posts detailing how you go about quilting larger projects on it? I'm thinking of creating a king-sized corduroy quilt with this method, and have no idea how to manage the actual quilting of it.
If you could send the pattern to m_alcorn@juno.com I would love to make this for my camper.

I have followed a couple of links to get here and must say how much I love your quilts! I do a lot of working with recycled denim and have an over-abundant stash at the moment and wonder if you are still willing to share your pattern? I would love to make one after Christmas. I have made a few of the 'rag' versions, but yours is so much prettier. If you'd like to see what I do with denim you can check out my blog and look for the heading 'recycled denim'.

I love this pattern!! I hope this isn't too ambitious for my first quilt but it will be perfect for my boys and their new beds. And since my oldest wears holes in the knees of his pants without wearing the rest of them out, I have a large stockpile of jeans waiting for me. I will need to alter the dimensions to make it for twin beds though (65x88). If you could include any tips to make this adjustment while maintaining the pattern I would really appreciate it. Thank you! aslauna@gmail.com.

I have so many jeans -- some already cut to those sizes and some yet to trim. It's a messy business to rip up jeans. Waiting for good weather to do it outside.
I'd love a copy of the pattern. A denim quilt is on my "to do" list for this year. What size needle do you use?
Thanks for your generosity.

I have been looking at this page for three days now. Yesterday I started cutting my denim jeans to pieces. I have only ever made one quilt before and that won't win any prices for sure, but I loved making it.
I want to make this one a bit more professional though. I was wondering if you have any photos of how you put the sashing on? Thanks
wow- i love this design-I have been saving jeans for years for a quilt like this if you could email me the pattern it would be appreciated- jerijokeene@hotmail.com- thank you
I would love a copy of your pattern! Your quilts are beautiful!! I love up-cycling! And love denim! Thanks so much for sharing! Carol at IronLftr10atyahoodotcom

Sew Many Ways (dot blogspot dot com) has a linky party on Sundays and I Quilt for Fun (dot blogspot dot com) linked to a quilt she made using your pattern. I think you might be getting a new rush of fans! I would love to have the pattern for the denim quilts, and any advice and tips you can share. I'm excited to get started on one. My email address is kkmead1@aol.com. Thank you in advance.
I have just found your wonderful quilts through the Nifty Thrifty Things blog. I love the different effects you can achieve from just one pattern! I would love to have the pattern. Thanks for sharing your creativity. My email is charmedlife2006@yahoo.com
Good Evening Alicia, Wow these Denim Quilts are popular, I had to keep scrolling down to be able to leave a comment.
I understand why they are popular, because we all have jeans which we can cut up and the different colour blues are lovely.
I popped over from Jan, I Quilt for Fun to say hello as she recommended your site.
I am certainly going to make a denim quilt for my husband as he will love it.
I am now going to get up to date with your blog. I have enjoyed my visit and I have become a new follower.
I would like to invite you to visit me at Ivy, Phyllis and Me! as you will be most welcome.
Best Wishes to you,
Daphne
What an absolutely FABULOUS idea that you have expanded on! I never, ever would have guessed that it was a Log Cabin type of construction, but, oh my goodness, that would make all the difference in the world. LOVE the idea of narrow sashing so that you're not struggling with the many layers of denim.
If you are still sharing your version of the pattern, I would sure appreciate having it. My email is pirate AT value DOT net.
I love your quilts! Have a pile of jeans waiting to be cut up. Could you please send me the pattern and any info on finishing and quilting. My email address is chathasai@yahoo.com

Could I please get the pattern for this quilt? I saw a picture of a quilt someone made posted on crazymomquilts blog on Friday night and I asked my brother if he had any old jeans lying around if he could save them for me and the next thing I knew he was pulling into my driveway with an armload of them for me. Now I just need a pattern if you wouldn't mind sharing it. My email address is bethkinder@tds.net
