I made a corduroy quilt for my Sister for Christmas. She loves it.
Used corduroy on the top with half squared triangles and used denim in a coordinating color for the backing.
It is very warm and is great for the winter months.
Just be sure to sew in the ditch so your seams don't fray.

I am just wondering whether any of you have ever done any quilting with corduroy. At the thrift store the other day, I passed up several yards of blue, brown and red cord fabric because I didn't know what I would do with it. This was small wale I think it is called.
