I made a rag quilt for the trailer for Miss Ava & she loves Frozen. The only trouble I had with this is once I had the last row on & I flipped to this side I saw @ once that I had done right sides together so the raw edges were on the backside so I had to rip apart all 80 blocks & start again sigh.......it has been awhile since I have made one of these & after making this one I understand why! Even with the flannel rag scissors my hands were so sore by the time I was done thank goodness it is a small one just the right size for her. I don't think I could handle a full size quilt like this! She told me that she loved it so worth it now that it is done & over with lol. The 2cd picture is without the cuts in it but they are done & @ the trailer lol

Have yet to make a rag quilt - I'm sure it will be cherished always.

What a wonderful quilt.

Lovely quilt, Loralye!

lol thank you Jerrilyn I have to say I am glad of that too lol ~hugs~

Oh! well done Loralye, this looks absolutely gorgeous. I would have unpicked it too, if it's not right in the first place, then use that damn unpicker! I've used mine many a time! Well done, it's a great little quilt. Love Chris

Thanks so very much Chris, I like it the way it is supposed to be lol ~hugs~

So sorry that you had a little problem with this project. But, you weren't alone in the ripping out stitches party! I too had to rip out stitches. Too bad that we aren't closer together to make a real laughing party out of it! I love the little squares. I need to organize my remnants!

lol it is now that it is over but I am not sure what hurts most...... doing it all by hand or finding out there is a die cutter for that lol

Lovely quilt.

Thank you so very much Vicki & yes it sure was lol ~hugs~

Gosh, I don't think I'd even attempt to undo 80 squares. You must be a very patient gal! The look of this quilt is quite fun. Love it!

She'll love it. You are a great fixer and a darling grandma to undo it all and start again. I would have left it as it was.

Carolyn thanks so very much, ~hugs~

I have an Accu-quilt Go and bought the rage quilt die. It cuts the slits and block at the same time. Makes it easy. This is a beautiful quilt. Great job.

I love rag quilts made with flannel but hate cutting all the blocks. I didn't even know there was such a thing as you are describing here.

by pldc 04 Aug 2015

oh wow I had no idea there was a die cutter for this!!!!! I will have to look into this thanks for the information Kathy!

Wow... so you made this one twice! These rag quilts are cute as can be, but I'm with you.... don't think that I could do a full sized one.
