I have been asked to make "quilts" for a high school sports raffle. I said sure...BUT... you have supply the fabric ... the children who are on the teams have to cut the fabric and I will sew it. How ever much cut fabric I receive will be how large the quilt will be. I supplied the 6.5 templates (poster board) I told them to use old jeans and old flannel shirts or flannel sheets. I needed the same number of squares for each fabric (one denim one flannel). I had enough to make two queen size denim rag quilts. I made almost $700 (total for both). I helped sell the raffle tickets at the football games. $1 each. not bad for a small school of only 200ish students. I still come home to find bags of old jeans on my porch.
