This patriotic Denim Cathedral Windows quilt was made for my second son, Josh. It started out as a lap sized one 12 rows by 15 rows; but every few months while I was sewing he would bring it so me and sweetly ask if I could add "just 1 more row to 1 side, please". And so I did. He had this up to almost a single / twin size throw.

He went to work in Louisiana before he enlisted in the Army and someone stole this quilt down in Louisiana.

So I am working on making him another one.

This one he wants the denim parts to be military camo; and a army fabric for the insets. I have the background circles all cut out; but came up 10 squares short for the Army fabric; and I can't find it at the local Walmarts!

I really want to make this for him, he just came home from serving a year long deployment in Iraq.

Denim Cathedral Window quilts

This is a type of Cathedral Window quilt that I got the idea for online and then sort of tweaked it into my own version. I have many of these quilts. Each different and each beautiful in a comfortable, homey way.

This one was made for a veteran and he wanted it "manly". That was his only stipulation. So the insets are a blue plaid - what could be more manly than that?

The background/back is cut from old denim most from jeans.

This one was a queen size one and it is very heavy and very warm.
