Convert the Pattern to an Easy Strippy Rag Quilt

It's easy to make a rag quilt from this pattern. Cut the same pieces for each layer you include in the quilt and sew them together with a 1/2" seam allowance. Remember... when you make a rag quilt, patches are positioned wrong sides together for sewing.

Refer to my Rag Quilt General Instructions for basic construction methods if you've never made a rag quilt, or if you'd like a refresher.

Cutting Differences

To make a rag quilt from the pattern, cut 7" x 7" squares and 4" x 7" rectangles.
