Another Raw Edge Quilt
Just getting started on another raw edge quilt or most quilters call it, a postage stamp quilt. My raw edge quilts are made up of 4 smaller squares that I combine into one larger square. I do it this way because it is a lot easier for me to work on smaller peices of linen. I mark my squares with a blue water soluble line and then cut out fabrics to place on the linen in the design I choose. I then glue them onto the top, I use linen. My next step is to sew the peices to the linen and then I add buttons, beads, embroidery, etc. If you look close, I bet you will recognize some of your favorite fabrics.
If you look close, I added my name into the one above.

Stay tuned for the next step. Next week I am working on sewing all of them down to top. I usually do the embellishemnts to the tops before putting the batting and the backing on.
Below is my last raw edge quilt, check out that post here!
As you can see, this one was much more linear.
The one I am working on now is more abstract.

Where do you buy your linen? Handkerchief? Tablecloth?
