    Default Crown Royal Bag Quilt - Anyone Made One?

    I have someone who wants me to make a quilt out of Crown Royal bags that her husband has been collecting. Has anyone ever made one of these? Got any tips for making one? Or pics of one you've made? I just can't picture a quilt made out of these bags & I need some inspiration. It just seems like this would be an ugly quilt...

    Try goggling the question. I have seen several online. I'm not sure the bags are color fast.

    Oh, I hadn't thought about them not being color fast. I'll have to look into that. And I will try google. Thanks.

    There have been some nice ones posted on QB. If the search box is working, try that.

    I haven't made one myself, but I've seen pictures of some truly GORGEOUS ones.

    I've also heard that cutting the bags is very messy.

    Search here under Another Crown Royal and T-shirt quilt

    Also, I pre-washed my bags before constructing the quilt - they do fine cold water wash
