Finished Rag Quilt!




The flannel ragtime quilt for my brother-in-law is done.  It took more time to clip the edges than making the whole quilt.  I took it to the laundromat to wash and dry.  Didn't want all those strings to mess up my washer and dryer!

I chose several animal prints thinking they looked more "manly".  And also, since he will be going for chemo, to make him think of the courage he might need.

The second photo is a picture of the back of the quilt, complete with a label!  Woohoo, another project done.

  2. That's one good lookin' quilt. The frayed edges give it the feel of the wild. I would never thought to do that with jungle fabrics. I'm sure it will mean the world to you BIL.

  3. Very nice. It does have a "lion, king of the jungle look" especially with the frayed edges. Now that I've seen yours, I'll have to try again. Best wishes to your brother-in-law and your entire family. ~Nita
