For the rag quilt I sew the blocks and then run through the Go to rag. So much easier. I only do one sewn block at a time and use thin batting. Also I sometimes overlap the blocks so I have rags on both sides. No fussing of keeping the snips flipped to the right side. I can make a large size rag quilt in less then a day. I use the 8 1/2 square die for the fabric and the 6 1/2 die for the batting. Layer and then sew an X. Rag the blocks then sew together. Done.
