Rug Set

anyone know how to make a rug or blanket from flannel ?

i remember seeing something somewhere about a flannel blanket or rug, and the flannel was cut so it made it plush...
i have a super soft & pretty flannel sheet set that got a hole in it & i want to make something else out of it...

anyone happen know what i'm rambling on about?
thanks!

I think (...but am not sure) you may be talking about ragging. You cut the flannel into squares, and sew the edges together then nip the raw edges to the seams to make a sort of fringe. Yes, you just leave the edges raw. When turned with the raw edges down, this creates hollows that capture heat, and when turned raw edges up, makes a cute and interesting rag "quilt."
Ragging can either have a backing (which, oddly enough, is sewn so the raw edges are visible, not like a normal quilt where you hide the raw edges) where the front and back are simply tacked together with a few stitches at the corners of the squares (rather than quilting as on a normal quilt). Of course, you can always sew the backing on to hide the raw, nipped edges...your preference.
