Rag Style Denim Quilt Meets Frontier Skirt

When a new customer told me she wanted my patchwork frontier style skirt but in denim, I was both hesitant and excited. I had a picture in my head but would it work and would it be what she wanted?

I have been making denim quilts for years using recycled jeans. Here are a couple photos of my earlier ones. Notice I make it a point to use the as many interesting parts of the jeans as I am able.

This is when I started incorporating flannel pieces with the denim:

Then came the rag style denim quilts - so much fun!

So as you can imagine, it was a blast being able to take my two favorite things to make, the rag style quilt and the frontier skirt, and make something new.

I did have to hunt down some light weight denim fabric by the yard and do a bit of re-engineering so it would not be too heavy, but I think this one will work. I do hope she likes it!

Thank you for dropping in!
