I love your upcycle background and hope to maybe make the whole thing upcycled as I found a pretty sheet at the thrift store to use. I am just wondering about the wedge. I am making a template from the pullout in the book and I noticed that the small wedge for this does not have symmetrical even sides. One side of the template is clearly smaller than its reverse. Did you use the template when you made yours? All the bigger wedges are symmetrical on both sides. I am going to spend a lot of time cutting these out and figure they should be right. ;)Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10878998557547047744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1378425196583923775.post-59717470654188075592018-05-12T17:43:53.431-05:002018-05-12T17:43:53.431-05:00Looks great.

Make sure you use a bigger needle if possible. Although those arcs just scream for you to put some beautiful quilting in each area, it might make the quilt even stiffer. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do! (Hey, there's always tying!

The stretchiness of the newer denim was a real challenge to quilt. The vintage denim sewed like a charm. I learned so much about the changes manufacturers have made with denim. Hope your quilt will quilt out easily. Happy Stitching D.
