    Default First rag quilt.

    Here is my first rag quilt and first attempt at posting a picture. The quilt was so easy and I would suggest it for someone new to quilting or sewing in general. I would like to make another rag quilt but I think I'll invest in spring loaded scissors first.

    Love it and the colors cheered me up and a gloomy day here! Love how bright and cheery it looks. I've never made a rag quilt, but sure would like to some time!

    One of the most beautiful rag quilts I've seen on here! You did a great job! I've never made one either.
