Have you ever gotten far into a project that ended up being more than you really wanted to do, but because you had invested so much time and money into it there was no turning back? Quilting the 195 squares was fun and quick thanks to chain piecing, but I got about a quarter of the way into snipping the seam allowances on this rag quilt before I realized I had made it way too big. I do not recommend making one this large (52 x 60 inches) unless you have bandaids for the blisters you'll get from the scissors. Or maybe I just don't have the right tools. But it's finished and it's gorgeous. :D

Made with five Moda charm packs on the front side, Bella Solids on the back, and flannel in the middle instead of batting.
