I am thinking of making another one of these….Shaggy Quilt…I made this a couple of years ago for a gorgeous young lady who I worked with, miss her heaps, but we do stay in touch…..they are just so simple but so appealing…

Another blast form the past…..A shaggy bag made for a friend who was having a baby….

DSCF1030 DSCF1031_edited-1 This was a shaggy quilt that I made for SSCS 2008……Chookyblue said we had to have a blog to play. (so pleased we had to)….that’s how “Happy In Quilting” came about…

  1. Hi Peg,
    Yeah, I also like the look of these shaggy quilts and bags.
    I've only made a couple in the past.
    The thing I don't like about them-is all that cutting, I do get sore hands.
    Hugs,
    Anna

  11. Those are so pretty, Peg - and I'm very thankful to Chookyblue to having you set up a blog! I've made a few of the shaggy quilts myself - but one I forgot to clip before I washed it and BOY did it come out a mess!

  17. Gotta love the 'shaggy' quilts! They all look fantastic... havent seen some of those older ranges for so long! The only thing with these quilts, it is very messy!
