It would be the stuff used to make the ruching, so that would be the fabric. We used that all the time for our square dance dresses; they never needed ironing and the ruffles looked like just made.

Very nicely done!!!

thanks everyone! I will probably try it again with more of the ruching rows.

I found this moda "crinkle quilt" that I sort of followed. I didn't do everything the same. I didn't do the pin on the end, cause I don't understand what it's for. And I only sewed one time down the middle of the strip. I think Moda said to ruffle on both sides

Very pretty quilt and colors.

I wanted to make a crib size quilt uses the ruching. Not so appealing now.

Super cute! I haven't heard of ruching. Love to learn new things. Your quilt looks great!

Very sweet quilt and trying a new technique make it extra special. can you get a close up picture to show.

I want to try this too. Shabby Chic is one of my favorite styles and this would look great with different strips of cabbage roses and soft colors.

You did a wonderful job! I'll bet a little kid will really like the textures on the quilt. And the colors are great.
