I think it's up to you.

THANK-YOU so much for clearing this up...as I haven't done one of these before so I was confused on whether to cut both layers off or not. I am going to try to do this for our soldiers. I have read through the responses that this does not take long to make so I hope it is relatively easy to do for a BEGINNER. I am sure they will be making more than 100 quilts which will be wonderful.
