They are FUN and EASY

Missus ... to get the fuzzy edges, you sew wrong sides together (on the front of the quilt), so all seam allowances are towards the front. The back of this quilt (off white Kona), looks finished.
After it's all sewn together, you clip down to the seam line and then wash/dry it (preferably at the laundromat); and each washing rags up a bit more. This had only been washed one time.
But I am thrilled to have it on my bed .... it is just a nice weight for summer

Here is another pix of our Ollie ... the one on the quilt did not show his BLUE eyes!!! He must be part Siamese somewhere, but his mother was black!!!
