Hello to all you helpful folks! I have searched on the forums and have read who-knows-how-many posts about raggy quilts, and have looked at the links shared about these quilts, but I have some questions I can't seem to find answers for.... Of course, I have an "Inquiring mind" and I want to know!

I plan to do a raggy quilt from denim for my mom. She lives in a mild climate (San Diego, CA), though, and I don't plan on using a backing - just the one layer of denim. It may be a silly question, however, do you sew from edge-to-edge on the squares, or do you sew with a 1/2 inch allowance around the blocks?

Also, when snipping the fringe, does there end up being a solid square at the corners of the blocks, as you have to be careful not to cut out chunks?

Thank you all, in advance for the help you're going to offer!
