Hi Marta. Would lace that you buy by the yard work as well? Or crochet lace by the yard?

Hi Glo1949! I think you could do it! Crochet lace seems perfect to me!

Do you put any stitches in the blocks that keep the layers together and flat? I would be afraid the blocks would end up looking lumpy without it....

Brilliant, my carpal tunnel stopped my crocheting so you just gave me the idea how to proceed. I have a huge roll of the exact lace pictured but a sea foamish green.

I don't think they are raw edges. They look turned under. I sure would, especially with flannel, but that is just my thought.

The stitch she uses around the edge is the blanket stitch, but she has them spaced a bit, to crochet on.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I only just found it via Pinterest. As someone who crochets and quilts, I can really appreciate learning the technique. As an aside, I bought something very similar overseas more than a year ago, but only single layers of fabric, not layered like a quilt.

I love this idea. I have a bunch of batting squares cut from leftover batting. Was planning on using them for a rag quilt, but I think I want to do this instead. Those rag quilts are fun to make, but kind of a "pain"! This is my next project for sure! Thanks for sending the instructions and pictures!

Hi, tron80. What sort of yarn did you use? It looks mercerized, which I want!

Hi Eurelisse, I used Perle Cotton Cones, Crochet Thread size 8 and the hook around 2.5 or 3.
