I have a new pair of scissors - well actually, snips - rag quilting snips- that made all this snipping a breeze. A must-have for the prolific rag quilt quilter. (Am I the last to know!) All my left-over blues and some greens with lots of white, all washed up and frayed, makes a most snuggly rag quilt.
How very cool! What a wonderful look for a den or home office couch. Those are my colors, too. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cozy! What did you use for batting? I'm thinking of making a rag quilt out of old blue jeans and am wondering about how to construct it. Debating the merits of low loft bat versus flannel.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lois....yes, it does have a come-here-and-sit-a-spell-look about it.
ReplyDeleteAnd hi Chris....I used cotton batting for this one because I was using cotton fabric. With a heavy fabric such as denim, you don't even have to use a batting. But, flannel sounds nice - lighter weight than batting - I would just pre-wash since your old jeans are probably well-worn! Happy rag quilting. Watch out.....it's addictive!
