My Second Quilt

Montana is a friend of mine. She is in a Florida hospital because of a brain tumor. I learned to make a quilt in 4-H and I decided to make a quilt for Montana.

This is a flannel rag quilt. A rag quilt (in my opinion) is a lot easier to make than a normal quilt. You take two pieces of flannel and a piece of batting then sew them together. The thread should create an X across the square. Then, once the pieces are done, sew along the edge until you have no more. Snip the edges, wash it and you have a nice fluffy flannel quilt.


I liked making this quilt because it is a lot faster, and it makes a fluffy blanket at the end! I am so going to make another flannel quilt later.
