Rag Quilt & Burp Cloths


Yesterday I gave this rag quilt and 2 burp cloths (from cloth diapers) to a friend that is having her 2nd bouncing baby boy. I'm not entirely happy with the way it turned out, but does that really surprise anyone? ;-)
Next time I will cut larger squares, maybe 9"x9" ones and do larger seam allowances, maybe 1". The minky dot fabric was a bit difficult to use, especially with the small squares. I love how soft that fabric is, though. Maybe it will be easier to use with larger squares. Instead of batting between the layers, I used plain white fleece.
The fabric can be found here.
