RQQ in now on facebook

Hello everyone, facebook has just bloomed with people lately, and we decided to join in the fun...we now have a place on there that your welcome to join, and we are posting new creations, and would love to chat with you...please come join us on facebook.

Hello everyone

So glad that it's the new year, and RQQ is about to celebrate 3 years of being a group. January 3rd is the big day!!!!

There has been several of our members sewing up simple quilts to send to Haiti, we know its not cold, but its nice to lay on or cuddle up in a nice clean quilt. Kudos to those of you who can do that. I also wanted to mention that I heard the woman over there sit all day with nothing to do...and would love some pretty fabrics, needles, thread etc, so they can do some sewing of their own.

You can call your local church and see if they have an address to send supplies to, im sure the woman over there would love it!!!!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful new year, and we hope to be posting more here, everyone is just so busy and so much going on, that its hard to sit still and write a line or two.

Stay happy and may your new year be blessed in so many ways.

Love ya all....


The RQQ ladies!!!!

Hey whats Rag Queen Quilters doing?

Hello, welcome to RQQ we are a busy bunch, everyone is working in their gardens, doing house work, yard work, and filling orders. I am glad to see they are all busy!

Here is a couple of the items you can find just by searching for the RQQ memebers on ebay. All you have to do is put in RQQ and you will find over 100 listings. There are rag quilts, totes, patterns to make your own, kits that have everything you need to make a raggy, warm and natural to put in the middle of your rag quilts, cut outs to decorate your blocks, pin cushion patterns, take a look, you might see something you really like. Here are a few I saw out there today.



Do you like ROSES AND MORE ROSES? This one is so shabby looking, would look great on the back of a couch.

Or do you have a new baby in the family? If its a girl, you may like these, I also saw some boyish burp clothes on ebay. Here are the pink ones I found.



Have a wonderful Wednesday, and keep cool, its hot out there.
