Final Inspection

A closer look at the rag quilt's frayed edges. The quilt had been washed one time when this picture was taken. I'll wash and dry it again to create addtional fraying.

Take a Close Look at the Rag Quilt

Check again for unclipped seams and clip as needed. Turn the quilt over and inspect the seams from the back side to make sure no seams have unraveled from accidental clips into the seam allowance.

Repair broken seams if necessary. Begin sewing a bit before the broken seam and stop sewing a short distance past the damaged area, backstitching at the beginning and end of the new seam.

Wash the quilt again if you would like to encourage additional fraying.
