Quilting/Expert Profile
Expertise
I am an expert rag quilter. I have made over 100 rag quilts and would love to assist others with questions and methods. I don't know much about actual quilting like machine or hand quilting or applique. I am, however, the resident expert on rag quilting in my town. If you want to make a rag quilt, I am your woman.
Experience in the area
I have been sewing for 12 years and rag quilting for 4. I have experienced just about every pitfall there is in rag quilting. Check out my quilts at audreysragquilts.etsy.com.

2010-02-05 Fleece can be used as batting?:
I love using 100% polyester fleece as batting. I think it's the perfect rag quilt batting. Easy to sew, thin, warm and no shrinking! All my quilts made with fleece batting are soooooo squishy, not stiff
