I've received several questions about reproducing the design for the first and third quilts so thought I'd share that information here so that you can make one, too. One frequent question is about how to size the finished quilt to be bigger or smaller. Both of these designs are based on an eight block by eight block grid. In other words…

You guys! I just finished this beast-of-a-quilt, and it is gorgeous, even for denim! I don't normally do commission quilts, in fact, never. I don't have time. But my sister had a friend who begged to have a quilt made from all his old Levis. I quoted a price that I figured would change his mind, and he accepted! Now, I just needed about 50 hours to do it.
