This will feel completely wrong but is exactly what needs to be done to create a ragged quilt. This will leave that raw, unfinished, seam sticking out on the front of the blanket. When you sew them together put the back sides facing each other and sew along the front side of your quilt pieces using a very generous. Once each of your pieces have the front sewn to the back it’s time to assemble your quilt. You can pin your pieces together to keep them from slipping and sliding as you sew them together. You can use a fabric marker and your cutting ruler to draw your diagonal lines to follow when stitching. Two tips for sewing your pieces together: ![]() Your sewing lines will cross in the middle. Then sew from corner to corner diagonally across each piece (keeping the front and back wrong sides together…and your warm and natural in between). (And if you used warm and natural slide it between the front and back pieces at this point.) Place the front and back of each each of your quilt pieces (#1-#7) together with wrong sides together. And the pieces for #2 measure 10″ by 20″ so I cut the warm and natural to 9″ by 19″. For example, piece #1 needs to be cut into a front and a back that each measure 20″ x 20″ so I cut the warm and natural to 19″ by 19″. However, I cut my warm and natural exactly 1 inch smaller than each of the measurements shown above. So when making this blanket I just cut one piece of warm and natural to fit each of the 7 measurements listed above. ![]() I personally like to put warm and natural in the middle of the blankets. (Remember that the numbers below are going to correspond to the quilt map above!)Īfter your pieces are cut you need to make a decision…do you want to place batting in the middle of your blanket or not? You will need to cut 2 pieces (a front and a back) for each of the following measurements. The first thing we need to do is to cut our pieces. (To make the instructions as simple as possible we will be referring to the quilt map below when talking about both cutting and and sewing.) Then all that is left is some clipping, rinsing, and drying and its ready for snuggles! It is a great project for a Saturday afternoon….with very few pieces, this quilt can be cut and sewn in an afternoon! Today we have a project that we hope will appeal to beginners and to die hard quilters alike…it is a Ragged Log Cabin Baby quilt!
