    Wow! That is pretty. You did a wonderful job. I did a full size quilt with both sides being flannel, but my squares were about twice that size. It does take a lot of cutting, but well worth it after the fingers heal. Thanks for sharing.

    Rag snippers were the first thing I bought when I started planning my rag quilts. What a labor saver!!! No blisters either. BTW, your quilt is really pretty. I love the soft colors and it ragged beautifully. I'm sure you're glad you did it. Thanks for sharing.

    My first rag quilt i made was lots of work clipping the squares and then i went and bought the proper rag snippers to make it . Have made 3 quilts now and alot easier but your hands still get a bit sore ..

    Very pretty. When I made one out of denim, I clipped as I sewed. Made the same mistake and clipped after I had put together

    Love Rag quilts!! The spring loaded snipping scissors is the way to go in clipping them. Much easier. Of all the quilts I have given away, the ragged quilts are the most loved and used. That makes me happy. I made one queen size for my adult grandson (at his request) and he loves it. ;)
    Your quilt is beautiful and the fringe is really nice.
