June Project Instructions

We will be doing rag quilts 40” x 60”. For a quilt with three different materials on top you will need 2/3 of a yard for each material. Be sure to prewash your material, and then cut it into 11” x 11” squares. You should have at least 8 squares for each material, 24 squares total. You will need two yards for your backing, also prewashed, cut into 11” x11” squares. For your patting you can do either another layer of flannel cutting 24 more squares, 11” x 11” or a polyfiber batting. You will have three layers of flannel totally 72 individual squares if you choice to do flannel. Being that we live a “warm” environment we could get away with only doing two layers-not batting or third layer.

If you have any questions please feel free to call me.
