I'm working on my Bonnie Hunter 2015 Leader/Ender Tumbler challenge. You can read more about it here. I am working with denim scraps. I didn't want another super heavy quilt, so I decided to make kitchen rugs. Denim is perfect for kitchen rugs. I haven't decided what fabric to use as a backing yet. I'm wondering if there is something that is non-slippery that I can wash... I'll have to use a coupon at JoAnn's next week.
I'm linking up with Leanne at She Can Quilt for the August Scraptastic Link up (and also Nicky - Mrs. Sew and Sow.) I try to manage scraps by sorting fabrics by color (mostly) and non-cotton fabrics by type. I had enough denim for my rug project.
Here's my first rug. There WILL be more!!! I need five for my kitchen. I think I will make them all different, but being all denim they will have some cohesion.

Love it! You must have a huge kitchen! 5 rugs??
That's a great use for those denim scraps!
Nice to have a bit of colour on the floor but I think my dog would run of with a rug! Good luck in getting all five done and finding a non-slip backing! And thank you for linking up to #scraptastictuesday
i love those denim tumblers!
Love, love, love your tumblers...great color choices! Gonna be awesome!
Very cute with the pops of color!! A tumbler quilt is on my bucket list but I just washed my kitchen rug and it went to shreds so I might have to borrow your idea. But I have a smaller kitchen so I only need to make one and it will cover the stove, sink, and dishwasher area. Thanks for the inspiration! And let me know what you find to use for a nonslip washable backing. Karen kthurn@bektel.com
