Sorry I just couldn't resist that title. Everyday I have to think of a title for my post. It isn't quite as bad as coming up with names for the quilts but is a close second. I usually load the pictures first and then hope a title will spring into my head.
There was that craze a few years back for the fuzzy seams in quilts. I made a few but I thought the clipping of the seams was brutal on my hand and didn't stick with it for long. The one below is made with the yarn dyed wovens that are a little looser weave and that fray very nicely. I have another one, a log cabin started in the same type of fabrics. It has been in a box for at least 5 years. This little quilt is 30" x 36" and is really a little more burgundy than the picture.
Here is a close up of the seams. This particular direction had you sew with 1/2" seams where some of the flannel quilt patterns used 1" seams.
We had a balmy day around 40 degrees F yesterday and now late today we are supposed to get 4" of snow. My art quilters are coming today so I hope it holds off til evening.
