Shower Gift: Quilt #2

My sister got married this summer and for her bridal shower I made this quilt and had everyone that came help tie it!

 Things I learned from this project:
1. Don't use a skinny girl's old jeans for making a denim quilt (unless it's a small one).  This took me FOREVER because some of the jeans were so skinny and not wide. Go to a thrift store and buy some BIG MAMMA jeans! 
2. Don't leave the pockets on where you are going to be sewing.  Around the edge and at some of the seams I had the layers of the quilt plus a pocket to sew through and my machine would not go through all of it.  It made things frustrating.
Other than that this was really fun to do and nice to have everyone help with at the shower.
