Thank you
I don't see why not...denim frays interestingly - sides will be white fringe and top & bottom will be blue! I think just denim would seem more "stringy" than raggy, but if you alternate with flannel I think that'd probably turn out ok.

Maybe sew a 4-patch of denim & flannel together, clip the seams and toss them in the wash a couple times to see if you like the effect, before you do a whole quilt.
