spring raggedy


I wanted to make something small, fun and with a feel of spring about it. I think this little rag quilt fits the bill perfectly! As there was very little sewing in comparison to the amount of cutting out and snipping I had to do I was able to do odd bits here and there without having to set out my machine and iron. (This is complicated as it involves having a clear kitchen table and no children underfoot who would try and climb the ironing board!) The fabric is by Saffron Craig. I may have to get some more of this - I adore it and now it is all gone! I know I know, fabric is there to be used not just stuck on a shelf to be stroked but I don't like it when I use my last bit of something!

  1. I wholeheartedly agree! I have a panic attack when I use the last of a favorite fabric. Your quilt looks nice and cozy with those raggedy edges!

  2. I love that raggedy reverse seam look but haven't been brave enough to try it myself yet.

  4. I adore Saffron Craig, but it's so expensive!
