I never thought of using denim and corduroy together. Sounds like a winner and I like the way it looks. They've held up really great.

Oh I have no Ideal how they have held up, these pics where taken back when I made them. The boys where in High school then. They where my friends boys who use to hang with my son and I had them in 4H. :thumbup:
Last time I saw them Moma had them put up for them, They are both married with kids now and as I understand they got thier quilts back about 10 years ago.

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.
