This is a photo of the front of my king size rag quilt. I used recycled denim jeans for the foundation squares. I decided to put all the rag seams to the back and the outside edges. It weighs 15 lbs.

It's wonderful--warm too probably! Thanks for sharing. This goes to show you that there is no such thing as non-usable scraps!

Great job, Now don't you feel wonderful about using up all those scraps?, It is such a good feeling. I really like how it turned out.

Very pretty, I hope your washing machine is large enough to wash it in.
I have a book on making string quilts and hope to make one soon.

LOL! Nope. I have to take it to the laundromat where they have an oversized front loader.

I may be one of the few people left who can say this - but my very, very favorite quilts are scrap quilts. I love traditional. This is great and I know you are going to really enjoy it.
