My Design Wall has been busy this weekend. I played around with nine patches and some Tim Holtz fabric, this was the final layout. I have started to make another new jacket for myself. I love the dark blue fabric and thought this all would look so good with Denim.
I took apart a few old pairs of jeans. I also gave the leg parts an extra wash. Some legs looked like they were not real clean and they did come out cleaner.
I took the belt waist area off 2 pairs for an idea. We will see if I like the waist used or not.
So I got both side of the front of the jacket together and then did the machine quilting.
This is the patch work I started with. I ended up making the nine patches the other way. So 5 dark units with 4 in the corner. So I had a bit of resewing to do. I am happy with the end way.
I have added this post to Design Wall Monday.
Nice colors and prints in your patchwork. It will be interesting to see how it all turns out with the jeans.
