                  The crotch area is the only place that had any work done to it over the two years.  The bright yellow thread is some hand stitching I did to reenforce that area.  You can see a could thin areas that need to be taken care of but this area and a couple where my pants swish is the only real damage

                            Oct 14 - My sister was pregant with her first child, I decided to make him a quilt

                            Nov 14 - There is a reason little old ladies make quilts, they have nothing but time.

                            I think the only concert I saw in those two years - Trevor Hall (I went to the syphony once, no pics though)

                            Dec 14 - Quilt done, wow they take a lot of time.  I hand stitched the entire thing, hand pieced, hand quilted, hand everything, it never touched a machine, turned out pretty good.

                            Jan/Feb 15 - Vacation - Friends house in Cali

                            Friends place in Mexico

                            A place to buy tequila in Mexico, the place was 95%+ tequila, it was probably the single greatest store I've visted in my life (I love tequila, I got away with only buying 8 bottles, which I thought was good)

                            April 15 - The kid and the quilt

                            And we are done, been a great two years.

                                  I'm sorry I haven't post in ages. This is the current state of my IH-555-03. I've washed them in the bathtub like 3 times and send them twice to The Works for crotch and flyloop repairs (Top notch service as I suspected). I couldn't wear them as much during weekdays because of my fecking job and to be completely honest because I have another 2 pairs in rotation (these are my favoritesthough). Still plenty of life in them which I guess is a positive thing, right? (just trying to consolate myself after checking out the state of some other contestants' jeans).

                                    Well i thought i had this beat, then I moved to cairns and 21oz won. These have hung in the wardrobe for most of the last year. Still plenty of life left, when I move on to a cooler place I am sure these will see the light.

                                      Super heavy category

                                      I have really enjoyed these jeans for the last two years. One initial soak and three or four washes. They have had a few crotch repairs, one hem reinforcement and new stitches for the top buttonhole.

                                      Also a few pictures from the one year mark, taken just before their first wash:
