I was just wondering, do your quilts always have the same backing fabric all over? Or do you ever use different fabrics for the backing of a quilt? Deb x 🤗 (also from England!)
@Hiddenhilltophomestead5 күн бұрын
I do a solid color for the backs on all my quilts. It's usually flannel unless someone requests a quilting cotton.

Hi from England 🏴 I’m just trying to get back into quilting after 20 something years……life, elderly parents, illness and some really stressful times got in the way…..and you made me smile because I’ve just done the same thing! All that really old fabric that I’m never going to use! 😂 I gave a ton of stuff to my teacher daughter for her school and they were so excited to have a stash for Nativity costumes, etc. Well done with your organising and I’m looking forward to seeing how much of your stash you now use. 😊

What color thread did you use did you use red white and blue and did you change bobbin threads
@Hiddenhilltophomestead6 күн бұрын
I matched the top thread to the front colors (red, white, and blue) and then cream for the bottom bobbin. I used the same bobbin color for the whole quilt.

Beautiful!! You might try putting flannel in the middle. You cut them the same size as your top square. You could use another cotton layer on the back. It will give you a two-sided quilt. Using the flannel in the middle gives you a fluffier rag on top. It also gives you more color choices. Great job

Forgot to ask- I’ve seen other rag rug videos and they made the wadding and backing a bit bigger than the front, but I think you cut them all the same? Does that mean all 3 layers show in the seam bit? It would be so much easier to do it your way when I have a go! Deb x 🤗
@Hiddenhilltophomestead28 күн бұрын
I do 6" squares for the front and back and then 5" in the middle. I use a half inch seam allowance when I make the rows so the only parts you'll see on the front of the blanket is the front and back material.

I'm new to quilting... Why did you cut the batting in squares rather than sewing the squares together and keeping the batting whole? Edit: I just looked it up, so now I understand. But does the fabric not fray? Also one more question: What size did you cut your squares? I can't remember if you said it or not
@HiddenhilltophomesteadАй бұрын
The raw edges do fray but that’s the look we’re going for with rag quilts. After a wash and dry cycle they have a ragging texture on the front of the blanket. Also, I’m doing 6” on the front and back fabric and the batting is 5”. 😊
