I recommend you pick this quilt is a king size pillowcase. Then wash it. Take the pillowcase outside to remove the quilt from it and shake it really good. Getting replaced the quilt in the pillowcase and dry. Again take outside to remove from pillow case. Believe me I learned the hard way.

YOU ARE AWESOME!!! I just got a cheap Brother sewing machine for my birthday and am learning to sew. I have made the kleenex holders and now this rag quilt. Cant wait to make the rest of the items on your channel! you are an amazing teacher! Thanks again!!!!
I just found your channel and have already watched about 10 of your videos…so far! NOW..I’m going to be facetious for a moment and say thank you so much for just getting into the tutorial and not into a whole backstory about nothing that has to do with the sewing instructions!!😂😂😂 but seriously, your videos are amazing. I cannot praise you enough on your tutorial style. It’s very precise, easy to follow and it’s extremely fun to watch. I am so happy your channel was in my feed this morning. AND!!! I want to make myself a denim quilt and I have a bunch of pre-cut squares that I was going to use but I am doing this instead. This way is brilliant! THANK YOU!!❤❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing this with me!!!! It is always a joy to know that my goal (of short sweet and helpful) is actually working and appreciated. Happy Sewing!!! 🧵
Finished up. Very large rag 54 10” squares quilt yesterday, and everything was going well, until I got down to the last 2 rows, before time to snip. Looking down at the layout, which was correct, except the seams were on the bottom, all the seams. My heart fell, and my first thought, “insane”, was I need to unpick every seam. Thank goodness, it was savable, since the quilt is for an adult, who I think will appreciate the pretty side being un ragged.
That would make my heart drop too! But I am glad you were able to save it. Sewing can make us want to pull our hair out sometimes.....but it is so worth it when it works!
So glad to hear that Nancy! One day I hope to have a lot more time to spend quilting. But for now I only have time for baby quilts. I suppose its a great way to keep practicing for when I can finally make something larger!
Ty my dear. I needed a fast quilt for my friend grandson new born. For Christmas. It is a blessing you exsplain and show how to do it so clearly. Ty. I will be making same for my 3 youngest grandkids for the girls. I'll than another one of other of your quilt. I have 11 quilts i need to make. Back to sewing. Thankyoi God Bless you and family. Merry Christmas❤❤❤
Mind blown! What an easy way to make a rag quilt! I just got several yards of flannel today that I had planned on using to make the cutting all the squares rag quilts. I’ll now be using the to use this method! Thank you!
This was a brilliant and quick instructional video without all the extra blah blah most videos have. I loved watching this and it is such a cool way to make a rag quilt! Thank you! 🙏 ❤
Oh my goodness! What a GREAT technique! I have made many rag quilts & excited to see your video. You are such a great teacher. Wonderful videos… great editing, organization … a joy to watch! Thank you! 🤗
I made this pattern with some inherited fabric from family member. This was so much fun. Easy and I’ll be making more. Thank you. I wanted to send picture but not sure how to add to comment.
This idea is GENIUS!!!!!!!!! I made a small one to try it out and it was amazing. I want to tackle a queen size with batting next. Do you think, to make it more manageable, I could cut the 108" x 90" piece of fabric into 4 equal rectangles, do each one like a small quilt and then sew them all together at the end??
I am so glad to hear you made one!!!! And I throw the genius hat your way as I believe your idea 💡 is AMAZING👏👏👏👏👏YES I totally think that would work. What a great idea👌I may have to try it myself🤔 Let me know how it goes! And tag me on Instagram so I can see it😍please!!!!
This tutorial is one of the best I have ever seen. It's quick & very easy to follow. Thank you so much. I am making my first rag quilt following your suggestions.
I am so glad you took the time to share that with me! It is my goal to be helpful and it brings me so much joy to hear that I have managed to help someone. I hope you find this project an enjoyable one! Happy sewing!
I have searched the internet to try to find a way to take a small rag quilt like this , and add a couple more to make a larger one. I’d love to see a video on that!
Thanks for the idea Maureen! I think I will do that! But in the meantime all you would do is make, let's say 4, small quilts and then before doing any of the snipping you would lay the quilts edges together and sew across around 1/2 to 1" in. They will be connected and you can rag that edge just like you would any other edge. So you sew the blankets together first before any ragging happens. But for a larger quilt like that you would probably need to have the blanket washed at a laundromat instead of your home washing machine. Hope that helps! Happy sewing :)
Thank you Tamara for your video as I am very much a beginner and I wanted to give it a try for a little baby coming into our family, but I’m starting out small and then I’ll graduate for the 1 yard baby blanket. You’ve helped me so much to learn in detail how I can accomplish a beautiful blanket.. I’ll send you a picture when It is finished❤️
Hello girlie, I'm a new crafter. I'm going to try your no cutting blanket. I'm very excited. I don't have a regular size sewing machine, so I hope it comes out. Thanks .... A
I like this idea. Im looking to make a king quilt using simple cotton fabric. Fat quarters or actually drop cloth seem cheapest. Ive been looking over 2 years for plain solid color beigh quilt since we bought our king bed. We had one for our queen. These were sold in target. Now the off shore made has very bad reviews to lies about being cotton, chemical and bad smells and reselling used ones?! I have sewn over 60 years. But not really a quiltery though I have done jean ragged square tote bags and free motion and appluque as decor on bags, jackets etc. I love this method. I dont really want a rag quilt, but want pieces I can imitage quilting. Dont think I even want batting unless If I can find cheap fleece or plain sheets. I may make a few small samples and flat feld the seams on top. But its such a great time saver showig the seams then cutting. Gives me ideas what to do.
And the 2 layers of flannel make a nice receiving weight blanket. Have a couple of showers coming up, so I will try these. Thanks so much! Nice details, even i think I can do it!
Well that's good to hear Carolyn! I am sure you can do it, and the best part is that the ragging will hide any problem spots that may arise :) I have made a lot of these for gifts as they go so quickly! Happy Sewing!
sounds great! make sure you prewash those fabrics first as they will both shrink at different rates. And just know that fleece will not rag up the same way flannel will. But I have still seen some beautiful rag quilts done with minky. Happy Sewing RaKell!
I love them too! Are you making an older one wider or a new one? What I like about this method is it is easy to make it larger just by sewing two or four together :)
Watched Darlene do these 3 years ago and couldn’t wait to try this technique. I’m doing mine with 2 yards of fabric. Updating one of my quilts to make it wider. Hope it turns out! TFS!
Thank you for this! And thank you for getting down to business without a lot of filler in your video. When watching an instructional video that is all I want to see. So many channels will talk, talk, talk and 95% of the time it is not pertinent to the subject. You gave the instructions, gave visual content and got the job done. New subscriber here!!!!
I’ve made several rag quilts by piecing blocks together. I love rag quilts! I think I’m going to give this a try with some flannels that I have that have some fun bright prints and a nice contrasting solid on the back. I’ve had some of my blocks not catch all the fabric in the seams and I’d have to go back and fix it. I wouldn’t have to worry about that doing it this way. And it seems like it would go a lot faster as well.
YES! a nice contrasting fabric on the back makes all the difference Lisa :) I am glad you share the same love for rag quilts that I do. Happy Sewing....and snipping!
Super kool!💖 i wonder how It would look if you just sewed all those seams down flat the pink is so pretty! I guess it When I really be a rag quilt but it would still look amazing!
Thank you Abbey! I agree, the hot pink looked so nice and bright against the white. You always could sew it open but I liked the ragged look :) that's the great thing about sewing, we can make them our own😍
I’ve made rag quilts for my grandsons and their wives and am making my five great grandchildren ones this Christmas. This is awesome! Can’t wait to do theirs! Thanks! ❤️😊
That’s awesome! This method will help you get them all done in a day!!!💝 then comes allllll the snipping 😂🙈 I hope you have a good pair of sharp clippers😍🤩
So very clever, I have been sewing for many decades and would NEVER have thought of this way of mking a rag quilt. Many thanks Catherine (New subscriber) from Australia
Welcome Catherine! Isn’t that the joy of being a creative 😍 always coming up with fun new ways to do things. Hope you are doing well in Australia 🇦🇺 happy sewing! 💕 from 🇨🇦
That was amazing and so easy.I will have to make one now.You have reallly inspired me.I always loved rag quilts but i thought that they would be so time consuming and difficult.Thank-you for explaining it so well too xx💕
❤❤❤ Wow i have never made a rag quilt but am ready to start, now I have to rethink my process!!!! So does this work the same way if I’m making a queen size quilt? I think I’m a little overwhelmed. 😅
I recommend you pick this quilt is a king size pillowcase. Then wash it. Take the pillowcase outside to remove the quilt from it and shake it really good. Getting replaced the quilt in the pillowcase and dry. Again take outside to remove from pillow case. Believe me I learned the hard way.
That’s a great suggestion! Thanks for sharing 🥳
I forgot to say Pin or baste the end of the case closed.
This will save your washer drain and dryer lint screen.
I use an extra large laundry bag.
Thankfully a quilter who actually presses the fabric before starting the project. Love this idea.
Christmas presents for the 7 grandkids will be these quilts - something for them to snuggle under.
Ooohhh! They will love them!!!

Thank you! 😊 I am glad you like it Donna!
If you want really puffy Raggy edges, you could overlay the seams with an inch wide strip, to give you an extra faux layer, before you clip.
What a great idea Bella! I never thought of that. Glad we can share our ideas on RUclips 💜 happy sewing! 🧵
