I have my camera battery charging at the moment. However, you can click on "search" above and type in rag quilt and several photos come up. Basically, it it quilted as you go, requires no binding, is self-backing and all your seams (front and back) are sewn together so they are all on the front of the quilt. You cut these seams into fringe so when you wash it, it creates the curly fringe. Using flannel and batting between, it makes it really thick, so sewing blocks together consists of 4 layers of flannel plus 2 layers of batting! You have to use a walking foot to accommodate the thickness. I hope I explained it well enough, but do look at the photos so it will make sense. My question is what do you do with the adjoining seams when sewing rows together.
