On 1/6/18 I posted a pic of my Crown Royal Quilt. I had 48 bags to work with. I washed my bags a couple of times before cutting them. I followed a You-tube video on cutting. Once the bags were cut apart, I heavily starched the pieces, and because I wanted squares, I used a 4.5 inch template. I cut plain squares also from the back. The side strips of the bags got sewed into longer strips that I used as a border. The bags are flannel like. I found them easy to work with. Starch is your friend! The fabric is "fuzzy" so I cleaned my bobbin area often. Some bags seemed thinner than others, so when I ran into that, I just doubled the squares up. I used regular quilting cottons for the contrasting squares. Was easy to do. Good luck!
