I did try this a little earlier, if I messed up somehow, please disreguard.

Thanks for posting this so quickly. This quilt is so beautiful and original. I never heard of raw edge quilting before like this. I will have to look it up. I read your later response on how to do this, how do you keep the edges from fraying?
