Discover how to craft a beautiful denim quilt using the quilt-as-you-go technique – it’s a game-changer for quick and beginner-friendly quilting fun! Quilting with denim is a creative way to breathe new life into old jeans while producing sturdy, one-of-a-kind quilts. Making a denim quilt from upcycled jeans is both eco-friendly and super satisfying. What’s more, you won’t need a long-arm machine for this – a regular sewing machine will do the job. Just make sure you use quality cotton thread and a fresh denim needle. When working with denim, a walking foot is invaluable, preventing unwanted shifting or puckering as you sew through multiple layers. The denim quilt featured here measures 96 by 64″, and it’s constructed from 24 denim blocks, each a generous 16″ square.
