    My first (2008) memory-quilt: I made of denim and from my daughter's dresses, wich she wore, when she was a little girl.

    I love that! What is the name of that pattern, or the size of the triangles. It almost is like an optical illusion

    That is one of the best blue jean quilts I've seen. A wonderful mix of colours and not very easy to do with jean fabric.

    This is not so complicated! Cut a printed fabric and a denim regular hexagon (approx. 10-15 cm size of the hexagon), lay against the right side. Sew around the edge of total ruin. Cut along the diagonals, so yuo get six diamonds, which consists of two separate triangles . Sew these rows together ... I hope you understand(I do not speak English)
