I thought I would post a tutorial on rag quilting since there was a little interest in the previous post on this subject. This is a wonderful craft to try and requires only basic sewing skills. I find it to be quite enjoyable so here goes.

My fondest memory of staying with my grandmother is her quilts. The feeling of lying under these quilts as a little girl is one of being weighted down to the bed by a soft yet incredibly heavy weight. What a cozy and safe feeling it was. All of the quilts were made of scraps that told a story. Old dresses and shirts recycled to make a beautiful pattern always fascinated me. By the time I was old enough to learn this art, my grandmother no longer quilted, so she could not teach me this skill.
