Seeing as I've never made a rag quilt before, I decided to do a little practice on some very small scraps of denim-- just to get some idea of how the frays might look. (These aren't as "raggy" as I'd hoped, really, but they're supposed to fray more and more with subsequent washings.)
It was also a chance for me to "refamiliarize" myself with my sewing machine. (I haven't really sewn much before, so it was rather slow going at first.)
ETA: I've since made more rag-quilted coasters from denim scraps, kind of like these.

Sketched quickly from the imagination (really just plop down the washes and let it go where it may). I'm using these to practice technique without getting "attached" to the work. I think I'll be doing quite a few of these for a while.

A Soldier sights his M-240B on a target after exiting a UH-60L Blackhawk. The unit was doing "static" training of on-, and off-loading Blackhawk helicopters in preparation for an upcoming exercise the following week.
The exercises are a culmination of training for the 1-12 INF's upcoming deployment to Afghanistan.
UH-60s from A/2-135 GSAB supported the static training and will be supporting this unit during their upcoming exercise. AH-64s and OH-58s will also be participating.
