I really love the look of the rag quilts that are selling these days. They look so soft and cuddly. But they can be expensive, sometimes selling for over $100. I just figured there must be something really difficult about making them that I am unaware of, considering that I have never made a quilt.
Then I found
this tutorial, and
this one.... and decided I must give it a try!
Here’s my first Copycat Rag Quilt
What I learned:
- It was not difficult at all, as long as you know the basics of how to sew
- If you use batting make sure to sew/quilt it down
- Don’t use Terry cloth, as cute as it may look
Seriously, you must try this! I'd love to know if you do and I'll let you know when I attempt my Second Copycat Rag Quilt.
super cute lynda!!! i love it! you should give it a try doing a real quilt. i KNOW that if i can do it...you for sure can! i had so much fun making it!!!
