I absolutely love Rag Quilting! It is such an easy and unique way to put a quilt together fast! The one in the picture to the left is a twin quilt I finished in one weekend using 7" squares.

Clear surfaces - tabletops, bright fresh windows without blocking the light outside - are good for one's mental health and ability to concentrate. Natural light is of better quality and does cost a penny to use. A light bulb doesn't use much wattage, but by positioning one's desk or work area near a window is just plain good common sense. Try to work in the daytime, rest in the evening if possible - it is better for the eyes, as well.

Staining the wood - The best way to go about this is to use a rag. Apply the stain to the rag and then work it into the wood. Let the first coat dry and then apply a second coat. Let it dry again and you can move onto the next step. If you want, you can use a brush for this application, but you are still going to have to use a rag or sponge to wipe off excess and ensure that it has been rubbed into wood. In essence, you are just making more work for yourself by doing this.

If you're living your life by someone else's guidelines and find yourself turned upside/down & don't know which way to turn. It's time to declare that you are not a rag doll & be in control of your life.

Then I pin the rows at the seams two rows at a time. Again you will want to make sure you are putting the backing sides together as you want the frayed look on the front of your quilt. After I have assembled all of the rows in twos, I start the process over by pinning the rows of twos. It is very important to pin as you will find these quilts can get very heavy quick.

Because of prejudice against women and blacks, we sometimes don't listen to what is being said. Some of us will not vote for a presidential candidate who is black or female. That is the sad thing about America.
