I just finished my first quilt. It's a rag quilt made out of dinosaur fabric for my nephew. (The colors are truest in the 3rd and 4th photos.) It has some mistakes--the most distressing for me is when I accidentally clipped a block 5 times in a row while ragging it. I carefully appliqued a patch matching the fabric pattern on one side and used the label to cover it on the other. (Lesson learned: don't rag the seam allowances late at night when tired...) It passes the galloping horse test and I'm happy with my results. I consulted the board here more times than I can count while making it and I owe thanks to all of you for sharing your knowledge so generously!

Very Nice!! My 6 year old would like this! :) You did a good job.

If my son received this when he was little, he would have been over the moon. He just loved dinosaurs.
I do miss those days. |

Beautiful quilt
|
Great job on your quilt. on my first rag quilt I ended up clipping a block and also just made a patch out of the same fabrics. You can't see it unless you are really looking hard to find it.
|
Very good job. Aren't they fun to make?! (but not late at night lol)
|
I was heart sick when it happened, but I agree the patch is very hard to see unless you're looking. I think this type of quilt is very forgiving... and I learned a good lesson!

Congratulations!! It is beautiful :D:D:D

I am really learning to like the rag quilts. My problem must have been the fabrics that I didn't like. This looks clean and fresh and not falling apart. Good, good job!
|
Looks very warm and cozy! I bet your son loves it!
