I made this rag quilt out of flannels. It was my first attempt. I really like the finished look, but it took longer than expected (particularly snipping the seams!).

VERY NICE! I did one at Christmas, the worst part was snipping, UNTIL i found a pair of scissors made for snipping. made bt fiscars, the blade is very short. i use it to cut the circles for grommets as well. best money i ever spent!

Thank you! And, thank you for the tip on the special scissors. I will have to pick them up if I make another rag quilt.
