RV raggedy quilt finished!
 

This is the quilt that I had extra squares left over from and decided to make quilts for our daughter's two cats. It is a bit bigger than queen size so should keep us warm during the cool camping nights. Now to get back to regular quilting and the purse I want to make!

Wow the cats and humans should enjoy this!! Very pretty indeed.

nicely done

This is beautiful!!!! You have to be pleased.

Very pretty! Could you post instructions please? Thank you!

I love your fabrics. That was a whole lot of clipping!

nice job very pretty!!!

I love it-fabrics are terrific.

Very practical and so pretty.

To learn how to make raggedy edge quilts, I watched some of the videos available on the internet. I used flannelette for both the front and back of the blocks and also put a layer of batting in the middle of each block. I cut my flannelette pieces 8" x 8" and my batting is 6 1/2" square so that it doesn't show on the front of the quilt when I nip it to allow it to fray or go raggy. I sewed an "x" from corner to corner after making each little block sandwich and that held the batting in place. The important thing is to take your quilt to the Laundromat and wash & dry it there a couple of times as the fraying can easily block home machine drains! The industrial machines can handle it as they are made differently. I also highly recommend that you buy scissors that are made for working on raggy quilts. I just bought a second pair from Amazon - excellent for ragging and your hand won't be hurting. It was like cutting through butter with a knife - seriously. (Heritage brand). If you need more information, please send me a message and I'll help however I can!

Thank you! It is so unbelievable soft! At the time I bought the flannelette I couldn't find much for patterns so chose these fabrics. So glad now!!!!!!

Nice quilt.

Very nice quilt, great flannel

looks comfy and cozy

Great work...I know how time consuming these are.

Really like this!

so cool. the cats will enjoy it. I would love to make a quilt for my dog. Yes, seriously, for my dog. For 3 years, thru thick and thin, he's been there for me and my hubby.

that's really great.

That looks like a very cuddly quilt.

So pretty! I love the colors you used.

Luv the colors of this quilt. Enjoy

A couple of years ago or so I made my hubby a raggedy edged quilt to use while watching t.v. etc. All nice man colours flannels! I also made our wee dog Emma a matching quilt and she loves it! So warm and comfy!

very nice... great arrangement of fabric and blocks. It looks like a cozy quilt.

Your quilt is beautiful

Another very helpful clue I received from a long time maker of rag quilts is to put a large terry bath towel in the washer and dryer roughs up the fray and they turn out much better. She also said to wash it twice and then dry it once using the bath towel.

Great Idea...

Love the quilt and the colors!

That sounds great! I'll give it a try whenever I make the next one. Thanks so much!

Great quilt - love the colors.

Very nice!

that is very pretty, should keep you toasty

I vacuum mine before I wash them, works great. I T-pin them to my carpet.
