The quilt and the need to complete something

As a stay at home mom my job is never done. Dishes, laundry, cleaning anything will all have to be done again tomorrow. Usually this is just an acceptable part of my job but occasionally I will find a great need to actually complete something that will stay done.

I decided to pull out those old jeans I've been saving to do a denim quilt. I looked up the instructions online and TAAA DAAAA! A completed project! It took me a good week longer than I had anticipated since I only worked on it during my small helper's nap time. Also Dee jumped in and helped tie and stitch during the last stages. (You'll notice the pliers in his picture.) What an awesome guy!

So, there you have it. A completed project that I am happy about. Guess I'll go fold the laundry.



TAA DAA!

I love this Di! I have a bunch of jeans I have been saving to do the same thing! I need to get on it. I think it's awesome Dee jumped in and helped. It turned out great! I also need to thank you for that link to the chocolate covered cinnamon bears. I love those things! It's funny I never thought to make them. And it's the perfect time of year for it. Miss you guys! LOVE your blog!! :]
