Rainbowzebra, I did my Avatar the same way you did. And yes, clip as you go!

I am cutting denim jeans up to make a rag quilt and have been told that if I put batting in, it would be too heavy and I feel that no batting is a good idea. I think I will just use 2 squares of flannel. I got a lot of advice and there were many ideas on rag quilts so I think you probably can do whatever you are comfortable with. BTW-congratulations on your new family member coming soon.

When rag quilts first became popular, Osnaberg (a soft woven thick-ish cotton fabric) was used as the batting layer. It frayed nicely and was inexpensive. I think you can still get it at fabric.com

Years ago when rag quilts first were popular, the instructions were to use a soft, cotton, open weave fabric that I now cannot remember the name of! I think it started with an "a"?? It was off white and you could buy yardage. It frayed nicely, did not add a lot of weight.
Can anyone remember what it was called? |
