Of course they're quilts, and very nice ones at that, thanks for sharing!

Yes, a rag quilt is a "real" quilt, and yours are very pretty and colorful. I have made a lot of rag quilts as gifts, and I think they are used, and enjoyed as much as their"regular" quilts. They are a more personal size, and I can't tell you how many times I have seen the grandchildren wrap up in them on a chilly day..............and by the way, aren't they fun to make ?

That's it. You have inspired me. I am going to start my first rag quilt today. Been meaning to do one but yours are so great that I am just going to jump in and do one!

Have never made one but it is on my "todo" list! Love yours! :thumbup: Roughly, how much would you say they shrink so I know how much larger to make mine. How are the edges finished?

I love your rag quilts. Really like the Sesame Street one. We have new little guy coming in August and parents love Big Bird. I may try doing something like you have done. Great Job.
