Owl & Dot Rag Quilt

While going through different boxes of fabric for rag quilts, I found the last little bit of owl fabric. It seems to be one of our most popular ones on Etsy. I didn't have enough for just pink and the owl fabric, so I added some fun polka dots.

This rag quilt has three layers of flannel, so the edges are extra fluffy.

Broken Chevron

This is a quilt that is similar to one that was requested for a customer on etsy.

We decided that we would do narrower strips of white the next one we do. I don't know what to refer to this quilt as, so I have just called it Broken Chevron. Any suggestions for a name?

There was a lot of wasted fabric in the making of this quilt, so Richard figured out a way to have a lot less waste. The back is leftovers. It is quilted in dense vertical lines in front, everywhere but the white lines.

I don't know if I like the front or the back better.

This fabric line used in this quilt is Petal Poetry Swirl by Exclusively Quilters.

Look for a similar quilt coming up soon for a repeat customer. This one is available on our Etsy store.
