Making rag quilts is a fun and rewarding hobby for people of all ages.  The quilting process is very forgiving and requires minimal sewing skills.  If you know how to thread your sewing machine and load bobbins then you have the all the skills it takes to sew your own rag quilt.

Flannel is a popular choice for rag quilts, but most cotton fabrics are suitable.  Fleece quilts don't fray, but the tabbed fringe is attractive and unique.  New fabric can be expensive, so don't overlook the possibility of using old t-shirts or bedding as quilting material.
