Gotta Love T-Shirt Quilts






Every time I make a t-shirt quilt, I am always amazed at the end result. The material is usually t-shirts that are worn out or too small, but the memories can't be used for cleaning rags or thrown away. I cut the t-shirts up, arrange them with some fabric and sew the pieces together. After it is qulted and bound, the t-shirts don't have to sit in a box or a dresser drawer!






The quilt in this picture belongs to my daughter, Becky. I used her graduation gown as the sashing and her Academic Decathelon shirts for border and blocks. Her sash is appliqued to a block. He first job is also in the quilt (can you guess where?).
