my friend wants me to make a quilt out of her daughters old baby blankets. She had previously given them to someone else to do the same but what they did was just sew all the blankets together to make a large blanket. She wanted a "quilt". I dont have a lot of time to commit to making it, so i wanted to do something simple so i figured i could cut them into squares (6-10"s??) and make a pattern like "trip around the world" or something similar. I was thinking the easiest and quickest way to put it together would be to make a rag quilt. All the blankets are soft fleece types of fabric. If i make a rag quilt can i get away with just using the blanket pieces for the front and back and not use a middle layer? Should i do something else? Any help is appreciated :-)
