After showing my jean rag quilt a few times, I began to notice that I had seams coming apart. I'm not sure if it's because I slightly lengthened the stitch length or if I had a spool of bad thread. To make sure the entire quilt was in tact, I resewed all the rows. It has now been washed once. I'd like to wash it one more time to get the seams to fluff a bit more.
Saturday we had the first meeting of the scrap quilting club and I posted about it in the previous post. Here is the project we will be working on as our yearlong project. It's called Flying In Squares by Melissa Corry and is a pattern on Moda Bake Shop. Below are my two test blocks. I also have a few segments of the first block.

Hope the jean quilt behaves now - it sure looks cozy. Love all those scrappy parts. Looks like a nice ongoing project to work on with friends.
