I’m a beginner & I understood everything you did until the end. Lol but I think I can finish it up pretty easy without the details. THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this!
I love your tutorial. I've never made a quilt before but after watching you make a rag quilt from your dads clothes i was inspired. My dad recently passed away, I just finished the quilt from his clothing. My squares are not at clean as yours and i made many mistakes, but learned a lot during this project. After the new year i plan to start making rag quilts for my children and grandchildren. Thank you for sharing your talent and passion.
I took a class to learn how to make a rag quilt yesterday. You taugh me more, in this short video, than I learned in the five hours of class time I put in yesterday. . I will try again when I collect ennough of the correct fabrics. Thank you so much.
I love, love this tutorial, you explained everything. You had mentioned doing something and out loud I asked why, you explained it. In other tutorials many steps were omitted or run through quickly. I actually wanted to see a rag quilt made with some thing other than fleece on top and this was it. Thank you!
Wow thats a really nice quilt and must be so special to have a quilt made from your own clothes. I watched this video dreaming thats its a project I could do someday. Not sure coz im a super beginner sewer but this video sure is inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Hello again. This is amazing. Another project to add to my to-do list lol. I have some old sheet material in a light brown & some fleece in gold. I just need to get some felt for the middle and I'll be good to go. Thx so much for sharing, Toodles
Subscribed, awesome! edit: I should have watched til the end to write the comment, but just wanted to let you know I'm not one to outright subscribe just one minute into a video!!! This video was detailed information, but presented in a way that was SIMPLE to understand, and to the point. No steps were left out, perfect for anyone who has never made a quilt. I've been sewing since I was 16, but have never made a quilt, but it's on my bucket list! I have lots of scrap fabric I need to clean up. I've also lost weight over the years and am making decisions on altering my clothes vs selling them vs repurposing them, so this is a great option! I know NOTHING about "batting" and didn't know you could use flannel... I've got a flannel flat sheet in almost new condition that doesn't match any of my linens! I own a walking foot that came with my new sewing machine, but I don't even know what a walking foot is... I'll have to look that up, unless you have a video about those or a tutorial. Anyway, thanks again for this incredible video, and your easy going and chill vibe! Fawn
I love the rag quilt, It turned out beautiful!! I would like to know if i can combine t-shirt squares and fleece to my blanket. I want the fleece to be the cozy side.
making this for my husband who passed away recently -- it's giving me solace and peace and a refresher course on a sewing machine!! question though -- sew each row individually and then sew them then on to the quilt? didn't see this on your video....
I'm new to this and my grandmother just passed away so I am making a quilt with her clothes for my dad and his siblings. I just have a question regarding the front blocks, I was going to get 3 yards of flannel for it like you mentioned, I think I missed something in the tutorial. I wasn't sure how you got the fraying strips on the front of the quilt. Is there a way to make it just outlined blocks without the frills ?
If I am understanding your question correctly, You just don't leave that extra fleece or flannel and make it all flush sew the blocks together like you would a patchwork pillow. Without the frey, you will see where things don't line up just right, so this way is Definitely more forgiving. To get the frey it's similar to the no sew blankets where you cut strips & tie them together. But with this, you sew your line while leaving ½"-1" material free so you can cut strips down to the line you sewed & then instead of tying/knotting the strips together, you leave them so when you wash the quilt it looks like the end of the video when he's holding his finished product. idk if I explained that right, but it's basically attaching the squares 2 at a time, then row by row & instead of turning it inside out so you don't see the "leftover" material you leave it as is & cut Tony strips so material freys when washed yo get this effect. Otherwise, if you don't want the frey, I would do the sew inside out method & dew squares with material facing each other so when you open the squares with the pattern facing you, the "extra" material is on the inside.
really good tutorial Scrappy...I'm going to give this one a go. Merry Christmas...happy new year and Christian love from Norfolk UK Gilly wife of Mark ps I won't use hubbys shirts though LOL
@@ScootsMahgoots I saw a lady use batting that is about an inch smaller than the top and backing, and she sandwiched a 2” strip of flannel or Muslin between the fabrics around the edges to make the fringe thicker .
Thank you for your great tutorial! Do you mix different fabric types in one quilt, such as- mixing t shirt, flannel, denim and sweatshirt all on the cover of one quilt? Just wondering if knits and weaves can work together in one quilt top.
To be fair, it’s lacking a bit of detail I mean there’s some good tips but it seems to jump and that’s when things go a bit wrong when you’re just guessing how you did it! But nice result anyway 😋
I have been wanting to make a quilt and this is the perfick design I and the wife have a lot of old clothe that I can use to get started thanks for the info #torah57mitch
My husband also just passed and I too think this would be great to do for the kids, grandkids, and myself.
Sorry for your loss
I have finally found someone who can explain quilting in my simple mind. thanks
This is a nice Father's day gift. Who wouldn't want a cozy quilt! Thanks
Great tutorial! Easy explanations. Thank you for sharing!!! Just adore the forgiveness of 'ragging'.

My youngest son died this spring, I’m going to do this I think. Thank yo for the video
I’m so sorry. I think you will find it’s therapeutic.
Sending you love and condolences. I'm 3 years into the grief of losing both my parents and I want to honor the things I can't let go by making a quilt

LOVE rag quilts! The combination of all the plaids, stripes, plain fabrics makes for an awesome “dad quilt!” ❤️

Sorry for your loss.
I’m wondering if I can do this with my son’s clothes. We said farewell on May 2, 2019. I’m not sure I can do it yet. But this is a beautiful quilt.
congrats on the recycling! love this
pretty cool Ive been thinking about making one out of my husbands old jeans.

This is perfect for a beginner because the ragging process will hide any of the mistakes you might have made
You make it look so easy Thanks

Great idea
do you always suggest flannel as the batting? Is there other forms of batting you might use ??
Hi. Flannel rags..batting does not so If you use regular batting you would need to cut each of the squares 1 inch less before sewing the 1 inch seam.
@@sherrybuskirk6312 good to know thanks

Thanks!
No problem!
nice job!
I wish I could have seen how you cut all of the shirts and what you did with the scraps and the sleeves....
Do you worry about them fraying after cutting?
Yes they will. I just try and not handle them very much and don’t move them around until I’m sewing them together.
Nice!

Nic3e idea
thanks easy
How many hours did it take?
I will try to use my kurti and make it square are how many inches
What size squares do you start out with and what size is your finished product?
I think he said he used his 9 1/2” square ruler to make the squares.
How many plus in each individual stack. I thought 3, but it looks like maybe you have 4?
I'm not sure if this is what you mean, But each stack had 6 blocks in it, and I had 8 stacks totally, so 48 blocks all together. Hope that helps
How big did this measure?
What is the total size of the finished throw?
What fabric is the backing material? Thank you for the video!
I used flannel
