    Hi,
    I'm about to start making a memory quilt for my neice who is about to start college. I have some of her T-shirts and blocks drawn on by her close friends. I'm looking for creative ideas. I want to make it bigger than just lining up the squares and T-shirts.
    If anyone has any ideas or references, I would appreciate your responding.
    Thanks, Wfeld1st

    Here is one I did for the Red Cross - mix the colors of shirts - use a border between all shirts that compliment the colors in the shirts - use more than one color border (I used red & black) - good luck
