I am interested in making the bulls eye quilt in the pattern book "Quilts From Aunt Amy". Since there are so many raw edges to this pattern can it be machine washed? Will it just turn out to be a frayed mess? Thanks for your input!

I have never seen the pattern. Do you have a pic?

Becca

No pic. Hate to admit it, but I would have to wait for one of my kids to come home to show me how to download pics for the third time.

No, It does not fray too much. Made one for my son in 2001, still looks great.

Okay, now you have my interest geared up to see one of these quilts. Sharon321 do you have a photo of the one you made for your son? Would like to see it if you do.

Not one where I have it handy. I put it into a drunkards path pattern.

Pam Pollock

Maybe there is a pattern on quilters cache? I'll have to check it out.

My first quilt was Bull's Eye. I had no pattern only has seen it in a shop. It was fun to put together. Leave 1/4 to 1/2 inch around each circle for clipping. Fraying makes the quilt. It will not turn out to be ragged mess.
