Rag Quilt Squares

Instructions for assembling a single homespun quilt square, rag quilt style:

1. Cut batting 1.5-2 inches smaller than your quilt squares.
2. Center batting on one squares.  Top with another square to make a "sandwich"
3. Stitch through all layers from corner to corner to form an X.
4. Backstitching to secure the seams must be done 5/8" from all edges.  Otherwise the backstitching will be lost when the homespun "frays."
