I am working on my first rag quilt, how am I suppost to do the outside binding, is it suppost to be closed up or does it get snipped also?

It gets snipped also. At least that is the way I have always done them.

I snip mine also. I have see people bind them, but that is not for me!

You can bind like you do on a quilt, or what I do is stitch a half inch from the edge, on all sides and rag like the rest of the quilt.

You can do it either way, both work fine :D:D:D

On my rag quilts I sew 1/2" around the quilt and then snip . . done. ;)

Ok, do I make that seam the same size as all the rest or bigger

1/2" is a good rag seam

If you already have the quilt done, I'd use the same seam size you used to join the squares.

i've done them with binding (without snipping of course) and without binding (with snipping the edges). works both ways.
