The first rag quilt I made using three layers. Since then, especially for children, I only use two layers due to the weight. They are plenty warm.

On the ones I made, I used three layers of flannel.

Thanks everyone. I think I will stick with 2 layers then-and that way I can probably make two of them at least.

I wonder how it would be to use flannel for the outsides and use muslin for the inside.

When I make rag quilts I use Osnaburg in the middle. It makes the nicest "ruffly" look to the ragged seams.

Here's another question. The first wash-does it put a lot of lint into the washing machine? Our washer has a lousy lint filter BUT I would love a new one. ;)

I didn't notice lint in the washer, but it sure is/was in the dryer...so I assume it does.
