The desighs are from Allsorts.

Love you're designs. Did you use woven fabric or flannel? I've been tempted to try one in woven fabric to see what would happen.

I used fleece on the back and a light weight fleecy knit on the front.
I'm glad you like it

Your #5GGD is a very lucky girl. Your Quilt is sooo Cute. Good job. I have made numbers of rag Quilts. I usually take several to a laundermat & wash & dry them there. This way I don't have to worry about the threads stopping up the drain. When I clean out the Dryer lint I wonder how I have a
Quilt left but I do. Here is a flower for you .

Beautiful, I love rag quilts, booggee, do the designs and stippling show on the back, or just the top layer. Flowers and hugs.

Very pretty. I quilt but have never heard of a rag quilt. What is different? How you put the squares together?

All the squares ar sewn together with raw edges on the top and then they are snipped
The squares are cut 8" and the batt is cut 6"

dkjack, after a rag quilt has been washed and put in the drier a few times, the raw edges become really fluffy and look so good.

I'm still lost. I'll have to look it up. :) Thanks
