Strange question -- I could be a real meanie I suppose....
I'm making a quickie rag quilt for a baby gift using Jo-Ann's pre-cut FQ flannel bundle.
Not concerned about shrinkage issue that much, but just wondering if anyone can tell me if I should wash the FQs first. They are blues, pinks, greens, yellows, purples. Not dark, not pastel, sort of medium color. Question #1 - If I make the squares 5", how many squares should I end up with and how big will the blanket be?
Now confession time: I'm making it for someone I really don't care for, but I feel the obligation because it's someone in my DH family. I frankly don't care if it shrinks or not. Just thinking it would be nice for the baby to drag around and nap with. Not concerned about impressing the parents, so I'm not going to a lot of trouble on this one.
Question #2 - Have you ever felt obligated to make a gift and didn't really care to much about the outcome?
