Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I have never thought of backing a quilt like this either. One thing though like rag quilts, if you don't have a washer with a lint trap consider taking it to the laundromat. Also I would use the chenille cutter -with a seam ripper you are going to probably five times the work - No way it is going to cut through all of those layers!
Thanks for sharing....

Here is one I found for sale that you could easily do with left over strips. http://www.overstock.com/Bedding-Bat...3/product.html
I like how she used three different fabrics for the flannel. I just might have to try it. She didn't use batting so do you not have to with this process?
correct, no batting needed since you have several layers of flannel. I am going to did through my stash and find my cheap flannel fabrics. I like how they did it on overstock also.Originally Posted by ljfox
Amazing several days ago I pulled out one of my UFO's a rug from several years ago to finsh and started working on it, guess what it is...lol. Yes that right! I have had it pined and layed for years and the lines where all drawed in and about 1/3 of the sewing done. I decided to take a break while it still siting on my sewing machine with the needle down on one of the lines right now and I open this post. I have the chenille cutter. Seeing this will help make me finally finsh the rug...Thanks for the link!

I would start by cutting a slew of 2 1/2" strips, making sets etc, 5x5 block? Easily done , mix up several strips, sub cut and mix it up. 2500 squares? Sure, but not individually! Smarter, not harder!!
The only bad days are the ones you don't get.
I have a question...who has and where can you buy the metal tips for the elmers glue bottles???

tree???.....and just think they have them... any help will be great
