Looking for demin charm pack
I would love to make a picnic rag quilt using demin as the back fabric. I have searched all over looking for denim charm packs with no success.
Any ideas where to look?
Thank you so much.

It never even occurred to me that this might be a possibility.
I cut my own from old jeans - but one can buy yardage - then one could cut whatever size squares/pieces one wanted.
If you do cut up old jeans - keep the squares from each pair of jeans together until you use them - there is a wide variation in colors and textures of denim.

I asked a few friends and to keep their old jeans for me and I got more than I needed.. Even used jeans have good fabric that can be re-used! Some I used the inside fabric for a good variety of colors.

Usually quilters usually buy denim jeans in resale stores. Looks like Esty is the place to buy some:
