Instructions
The use of a stabilizer on each shirt was essential. Some folks choose not to use batting, but I found that I prefer batting and used "Soft and Warm."Difficulty:
Category: Quilting
Type of item: Functional
For: Men
Style: Mod, Traditional
Materials
Old t-shirts; a few Kona cotton fat quarters related to interests places lived. I managed to applique 2 cats by hand, after I quilted it. Unfortunately I didn't photograph the completed quilt.
What was your inspiration?
Seeing a t-shirt quilt a friend had made.
What are you most proud of?
I managed to figure out how it was done by reading on the web. This was my 3rd large quilt.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
I think using sashing helps to set off each block/shirt. The use of 108 inch backing made it seamless, and allowed for a binding to be pulled around front, turned under and sewn.
