Cute Rag Quilts from Quiltalicious

Have you ever wanted to try making a rag quilt? 

To make a shaggy flannel quilt, you sew your seams on the TOP of the quilt, not hiding them on the backs. You also sew the front of the block together with the back (and if you use flannel or batting to create a sandwich, you sew that with the blocks as well).

 My friend Tammy H. from Quiltalicious - 
made these quilts from her baby quilt patterns
