I have watched at least 2 dozen videos on rag quilting and not ONE has ever explained the process as well as you have. I appreciate you and have learned a lot from the tutorial. Thank you again. Fan here!.

Allison I know this is answering 8 years later but I also use a Bernina. I got my fist one in 1975 and that’s my main machine. I also have a Bernina machine that has an embroidery modular with it. But if you take that off it’s just a newer Mondale fancy machine with more stitch options! Still I use my 1975 model! I also have 2 Bernina sergers. One simple one and one that also does the hemmed seams. I’ve stuck with Bernina because they last! I grew up with my mom buying cheap machines every other year! When she passed away she had about 6 machines and most didn’t work well! I gave all them away!

Angel I’ve sewed for over 56 years learning in jr high years in Home/Ec. I’ve made my own patterns, sewed formals, wedding dresses, quilts, Barbie clothes, made Teddy bears, you name it I’ve sewed it. But I’ve never made a rag quilt! Great tutorial!! Thank you! You make it easier with your descriptions! Can’t wait to try it! Loads of my mom’s material to sort through!! 😃

HI Dorothy! what I did was a single long row of stitching diagonally across the blanket. So I back stitch where I started at the edge of the blanket and locked the seam at the other end. The truth is because I machine stitched the binding I technically didn’t need to lock the seam, but it made me feel more secure. 🙂

Love the tutorial and video.

The only thing I had sewn before that was a pair of pj pants. Almost a year has gone by and I have won a 1st place award for one of my rag quilts and I have gifted so many. Thank you so much for this tutorial it has inspired me to love quilting and I just taught my daughter how to quilt and yesterday she made her first rag quilt for her bed. Thank you again!!

Yes that would work – you would just need to cut the squares yourself. 🙂
