I have to admit that I really love these t-shirt quilts. This is # 3. They do take extra time. Between cutting, adding the stabilizer, figuring out the design, finally sewing, sewing and sewing, finally quilting. It's a lot of time.
The very best part is when you throw it in the wash and it comes out of the dryer, super crinkly and super, super soft (love those old thrifted t-shirts)
Just the best quilt ever. With the first one that I made I used a flannel back, which is awesome, for the weight and the softness and the warmth. This time around I used a shirting material. Think plaid, nerdy, pocket shirt. Business casual ?
Even better. It gave a nice, crisp, lightweight back to this quilt. Perfect for a summer picnic, or a cool summer night watching the game on the bleachers ?
The finished size was around 57 inches by 57 inches. All the shirts were thrifted from either Goodwill or Salvation Army. Another favorite for sure. It sold super fast. HOME RUN !
