Rag quilt update - pictures!

I finally got around to taking some pictures of my completed rag quilt! I am so proud of it! I still need to wash and dry it a few times to continue the fraying of the "rag" edges, but other than that, it's ready to go. It is not perfect. Not all of the seams line up on the back, but they are all pretty close.

Now I just need to find a place to use it! I love the fabrics, but they don't match anything I have in my house. There are ten different fabrics, but they all go together. I may end up keeping it in the living room in my basket of blankets for tv watching.

Here are the photos. I can't decide which fabric I like the most. I just love the way they all look together. What do you like best?

that's an awesome quilt! quick Q's: do you snip the material before, or after sewing all the squares together?? Does it really stay all nicely sewn together after being washed and fraying?
