In one of my earlier posts I showed you a couple of different methods of making crazy quilts. One of the methods was to make quilt blocks and then sew them together. Also, I have shown you how to make Split Rail Fence quilt tops out of scraps. I really like the idea of going green with my quilts. You know the old saying "Waste Not Want Not". Well I think we are taking that to the next level by recycling materials and making sure that those scrap pieces don't end up in the trash can.
Here are a couple of pictures of what you can do with those scraps and old jeans. I hope that they inspire you to try one of these projects for yourself or for a gift.
