I just used a navy cotton. I am not good at the photography so forgot to show some of the backing and I don't have the wall space to hang for better view so my pix seem to be out of square.

The denim log cabin is wonderful. A denim quilt is on my 'want to try' list.

I enjoyed sorting the colors and was amazed at the results. I lack self-confidence. It was very difficult to post the pictures.

You did s really nice job of sorting them out and making a nice design with the denim. I have a large stack of recycle jeans I have been saving too. I think if hubby keeps losing weight, I will have enough for a couple! LOL!
Thanks for the tip of using the wider seams.

Great job. Is that a Christmas present? What an inspiration for everyone to use up the saved for something jeans.
Thanks for sharing.

They are very nice. Started making a quilt out of denium one time but I thought it was too heavy for rest of the fabric. I can't throw jeans away either. Ds has bad habit of busting out crouch when he gets on his horse so I always a lot. I even made a fishing rod case out of some one time.
