rag quilt question
has anyone made a raq quilt bigger than lap size?
|
Not me.
|
Yes, several that were twin size
|
I made a full size and it worked great.
|
I have made several that were twin or bigger. They work great just take a bit longer to make like anything else that size. My biggest was about the size of full or a bit bigger.
|
I made a double / queen size.
|
Sure, most of mine are at least queens. I have had to take a couple of the big ones to the laundromat & use the big triple loaders. I take them outside & shake them like crazy before washing & check, empty the lint traps in the dryer every 15 minutes.
|
I've seen full size and larger. One was made with old jeans. At a quilt show there was a large one made in the shape of a turtle. lots of possibilities.
|
No me. Just realize they tend to become heavy quilt with the layers of flannel. If you make one larger, REMEMBER to do the first wash at a laundromat, they have much larger pipes than homes do.
|
I made one for my daughter not quite big enough for a twin bed, but larger than a lap quilt. She loves it, it was easy too. Had some squares left over, decided to make one for me (still in the UFO stage though).
