Sunflowers and Blue Jeans

I made this for my daughter-in-law.  She is a soccer mom.  Literally.  They have 2 daughters playing in soccer tournaments this weekend: five soccer games.  Since I have to ship this, she won't get this quilt until next week.  Just in time for the next chilly weekend weather in Ohio.
Six and 8 inch strips from denim pants. 
 Here are the sunflowers.  I love this funky freehand design.

 Flannel Back (not a true color--I ran out of sunlight)
True color
Bright yellow thread. 
Their school colors are blue and gold.
  I think it will show up just fine from across the field!

  5. What type of fabric did you use for the backing? cotton? By the way, I used your design for a quilt I made out of all of our old jeans. Thank you so much!
