VINTAGE RAG QUILT


This rag quilt was created for an Auction for a young lady to help cover cost of tuition for college. She is an exchange student here in Northern Maine. I think the color combinations and prints work well together to give it a vintage look. There are so many great prints in Flannel. I started with an 8" block and did a 1/2" seam on all sides. This made it a finished block size of 7".

There are so many quilt blocks that can be used to create a rag quilt and this is one of my favorites that is very easy to do. It is also a quick and easy pattern to follow.
