Homespun????
Hi everyone, does anyone know of a tip to working with homespun material? My son brought hime some and says, "Mom make me a quilt out of this, I love the colors!!" So of course Mom says "Why sure Son anything for you." I think maybe not anything anymore. I hate this stuff, it moves, it stretches, and it is kinda itchy. Please help, I promised him I would make it and he never asks me for anything, so I think I need to make this quilt.

What kind of quilt are you going to make? It frays easily, so is often used for rag quilts. Here is a link:

Good luck with making this for your son. Since you are doing a 4-patch it shouldn't be to hard to work with. I'm making a table runner for my daughter using homespun. She bought the fabric and said "her Mom this is what I want". It really isn't bad to work with but not my usual stuff. Made my granddaughter scarves that was really nice with this fabric because it does fray really bad.
