There is something wonderfully satisfying about a quilting challenge that pulls people together around a single, simple idea. In this video, Debee from Scrappy Quilts With Debee invites her quilting community to dig out their old (or new) denim and join in on a shared make, the kind of friendly nudge that turns a dusty stack of jeans into a brand new project.
Here is why this one is worth watching:
- A real, cosy community vibe. Debee's challenges feel like sewing alongside a friend, with plenty of encouragement, practical ideas and gentle inspiration to keep you motivated.
- Endless ways to use denim. Whether your stash is one pair of worn-out jeans or a whole drawer of denim scraps, the challenge gives you space to experiment with weights, washes and stitching techniques.
- An invitation to start something today. The best part of a challenge is the gentle deadline, and Debee makes it easy to jump in, even if you have only a small project in mind.
Are you tempted to join in with a denim project of your own? Tell us in the comments what you would make first, a patchwork throw, a tote bag, or maybe a little keepsake from a beloved old pair of jeans? We would love to hear your ideas!
