Here is a link to a tutorial that I posted on Craftster a couple of years ago. I have that quilt here beside me on the sofa right now and it is my favorite for using on road trips and for my bed in the winter. I worked on it in the evenings and when I was stressed out during one month that summer. It went together quickly and was a delight to make. I plan to make another, perhaps with regular cottons for the backs of the blocks. Maybe the next one will be in a diamond pattern or.... So many possibilities. It is nearly impossible to decide!
Bonus: I took the upper parts of the jeans that weren't so great for recycling into quilting blocks and made a dog bed. There is not a tutorial, but the photo here is pretty self explanatory and the zipper area allows for de/restuffing and washing.

I'd really love to see your own interpretations. Please send me pix or links to your images. Any details you want added would be awesome, too.
