Who has tried the Layered Patchwork by Kansas Trouble Quilters
I am looking at some of the beautiful scrappy quilts using this method. I'd like to know the pros and cons from anyone who has made a quilt using this method.
I'm not sure I would like the raw edges?
One of the quilts is pictured on the Oct. 2014 issue of American Patchwork and Quilting. I really love it. [ATTACH=CONFIG]487142[/ATTACH]
thanks for any input

I'm interested in hearing what other people have to say about this. A friend who collects charity quilts got some quilts that had raw edge applique, and she said even after washing strings/threads kept coming off. I didn't see the quilts in question but wondered how much of a problem that might be.

It struck me as being a very expensive way to quilt. Instead of piecing,she adds fabric on top of fabric, and/or stitches a piece down to look like applique. She uses a lot of pre cuts. She makes pretty quilts, but I don't have her budget, so I will continue to cut, and piece the old fashion way.
