AS,
Both terms are correct. “Fun & Done!” is the name Susan Nelson of Prairie Sky Quilting has given to her patterns with her particular method of constucting and quilting as the same time. “Quilt As You Sew” is what Sondra Davison of Out Of The Blue calls her method. And then others use “Quilt As You Go”. You might want to try a few methods to see which works best for you.
I’ve never tried it but I think the 1/2″ seams that are left with raw edges are usually flannel quilts. Then you wash them and dry them several times to get all those edges to fringe. But it’s really hard on your dryer! There’s LOTS of lint build up and I’ve heard you need to clean out the lint trap every few minutes.

I have been trying to find the fun & done or some said it was the quilt as you go .
What is the correct term and is there a pattern that you leave the seams showing and cut the 1/2 ‘ ‘ seams with a special fringing scissors?
Need to know. AS
