Cutting the batting wasn't a problem. I had a roll of king size batting so just used a ruler and rotary cut 2 inch strips from the folded batting giving me long strips. I cut the 2 1/2 inch strips for the backing using my Go die cut. I only sewed a few strips end to end to see how it would work. I sewed a backing strip with the top strip with the batting on the outside. I used this padded strip as the original strip. So far it's working. My camera battery is dead so I'll post pictures if it works for a large size as I keep folding.
I decided to use the rag die and just make a rag quilt for the quilt I need for Tuesday. I have it all cut, just need to sew the squares to each other. |
I see no reason it would not work...... I can't wait to see the pics!!!

When I need a quick quilt to donate for a charity auction or something that comes up unexpectedly, I make a pattern called Big Star by Country Threads. It is a throw size that can be pieced in about 3 hours and can be on my quilting machine tomorrow. I have made 8 or 9 of them in various color combination, but alway in flannels. They have all turned out quite cute.

Another go to pattern that I like to use when I need something fast is a pattern called Charming Log Cabin by Threaded Pear that they advertise as a 4 hour quilt. It is basically one large log cabin type block that is quite nice and can be made with the top and bottom borders scalloped if you wish.
