Things You'll Need:
- Sewing equipment
- Bandanas
- Quilt backing material
-
Step 1
Acquire a sufficient number of bandanas for the project size.
-
Step 2
Cut the bandanas into the size and shape called for in the pattern. Double the number of bandanas if this will be a reversible bandana quilt. Cut an equal number of quilt backing material the same size as the bandanas.
-
Step 3
Sew the bandanas together, either seam allowance side out for a more ragged look or together right side in for a finished appearance.
-
Step 4
Use a walking foot on the sewing machine to better feed the material through the sewing process. This will help keep the layers from shifting.
-
Step 5
Place a bandana right side down on a table. Put a piece of the backing material down on top of that. Finish by placing a final bandana right side up on top of the stack. Do this, as many times as there are bandanas making "bandana square sandwiches."
-
Step 6
Assemble the bandana stacks together and match rows together following the desired pattern.
-
Step 7
Run two stacks together through the sewing machine using the walking foot. Take two more stacks and place them alongside the now sewn first stack and sew them together.
-
Step 8
Continue in this fashion until all bandana stacks have been assembled into the desired size and shape quilt.
