Old Jeans=New Rugs

So today my two boys (Cory -21 and Brandon 16) decided to tell me that they wanted new rugs for their rooms(the entire house is hardwood or tiled floors). I told them someday.....well, someday has arrived! My husband decided that after a years worth of beating his jeans up it was time to get rid of them. He set them on a chair for me and told me....here you go...do something with them!!!! Well, I'm doing just that!!!! I remembered reading about rag rugs and using old denim jeans, well, now I'm cutting the jeans and next I'm cutting them into 1x2 rectangles and then I'm going to cut out a long piece of denim for the backing. Then I'm going to sew the strips of denim to the long denim backing piece.....I'll post pictures as I go through the process.
