Crown Royal Bags
Everyone I have talked to said these things are a mess to work with. Well, they are right!! I am doing a custom quilt for a customer out of Crown Royal Bags. ULCK!! This is about 1/2 of the bags.
Here is the first half cut up into 4 inch squares. I have one with the embroidery and one plain. Dont you like the yellow underneath?? I am using that for some borders. Will look good, I hope.
Center completed. Well, what do you think?? No pattern, just making it up as I go. So far, so good. I will be cutting up the rest of the bags tomorrow. I did add another row, but will let that be a surprise.
This stuff is cheep flannel, it stretches and will shrink. I washed one to see what it will do. I also did the burn test and determined it was cotton.
Tomorrow will be working on this, again. I am aiming for a nice size wall hanging. Wish me luck and stay tuned for the results.
Happy Quilting,
Vicki

How's the bag quilt coming along? Lots of purple fuzz at your place?
I make CR bag quilts, too. People just don't understand why I charge so much to make them, but I see that you understand, lol. The last one I made, I just made it up as I went, too. you can see a pic of it at www.porchswingquilts.com. Yours looks great, by the way!
