    I love rag quilts and so do the recipients! I like 1/2 and 1", Prefe 1/2. Clip close to the seam. I use the spring slippers for cutting, sure saves the hand from the ravages of arthritis!

    that is one of the cutest things I have seen..I printed it out and will hang it in my sewing room..and I also just have to share this with the other quilter friends at Linus. Thanks so much for letting us all have a smile for today!

    I made one and I used 1/2 inch seams. snip close to, but be careful not to go through the seam.

    I love this. Sure fits the situation at my house--minus the maid. (Sigh.)
