I was taught that this is a kaleidoscope, and that stack and whacks are when you put 9 in a pile and cut thru, then move some to the bottom and cut thru again. I have never actually gotten a clear understanding about which is which.
My wonderful sisters-in-law taught me to quilt and at our annual get togethers I made both, when I was too new at quilting to know I was in over my head!!

As for the denim, I had a good sized remnant I pulled out and when I measured, it was exactly the right width and just 10" too long. I knew it was meant to be!!
