Corduroy is really bad for fraying so I top stitched it after I pieced it. Then I backed the quilts with flannel.
I cut the bulk out of the seams where they meet then quilted them. I use my cheap old brother I bought at walley world 25 years ago. LOL :thumbup:

Very nice! It kinda looks like you zigzagged or satin stitched the blocks together. Am I right? I love denim quilts too, but always felt the seams were bulky. Care to share?, lol.

Thanks to all who posted on this thread. I put the pics up due to a post about a lady being frustrated over her denim quilt. I think is said "slap me if I ever try a denim quilt again" Not exactly what the title said but close.
