I was given several packs of fat quarters and was wondering what quilts you would suggest for these

I like homespun for rag quilts. :-D

Don't know the answer, but wanted to say hi from Iowa :-).

Rag quilts for me also. They make beautiful quilts.

Well, whatever you do... wash them first to get any loose dye out. I've found that homespuns have a tendency to run.

and fraying happens too.

i've used homespun for rag quilts- they get very"raggy". also mixed them with denim to make a rag purse.

I used 10 homespuns FQ's with 10 regular cotton FQ's in similar colors, and made a turning twenty top. I'm in the process of handquilting it, and it's turning out great. I didn't prewash the homespuns, because I was advised they'd get all wonky. So, I'll use color-catchers when I wash the finished quilt.

Have fun, whatever you do.
