I am about to start it today. Can you tell me please .... is the width of each strip different? ie some might be 4" wide, some might be 2" wide but another 2" wide in a different shade has been added. It looks as if the length of each "wedge" is the same but the 60 degree angle ends are all random. Look forward to hearing from you with some help. Also, I was going to put a flannel in between the denim and a cotton backing. Would this make it too hot and heavy? We live in Australia.

I did avoid multi-seams - jeans material is quite thick, and it would have gotten bulky really fast.Katie Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00005171251330741089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3695208803227361374.post-70960954233148453022019-02-01T03:52:15.543-06:002019-02-01T03:52:15.543-06:00This is really lovely!

I'm planning to make a heavy quilt in needlecord, hand-sewn (it'll be tied, don't worry), and this is the design I keep coming back to as a starting point, the strips and the 60° angles. How big was it overall? I'm trying to work out the scale. Apart from loving the look of it, I see you've cleverly avoided multi-seam joins, which must have helped technically.
