I'm making a quickie rag quilt for a baby gift using Jo-Ann's pre-cut FQ flannel bundle.

Stitch124, When I get a FQ bundle of 5 from Walmart for rag baby quilt, I use every inch of each piece...they are 18x 22, after selvage is cut,( sometimes 21") I cut them into bricks of 6" x 7". 5 across, with the 7"lengthwise. 6 down, alternating pattern to look good...with 1/2 seam. Make a cross just to hold together, no batting..no prewash any more..Just let it shrink... .double stitch around the edge. So easy and fun..The time is in the snip, snip, but I relax & enjoy that part...The ragging in washer and dryer is the pits.. JMHO.. berni
