    Default Bicycle T-shirt quilt.

    My DH rides 100 mile bicycle rides. Each T-shirt represents a ride and this is only a small part of the ones he has. It's not flat but he liked it. Both fabrics are bike prints, the light one I had in my stash.

    That's awesome! My DH used to ride centuries, too. And he has a whole slug of t-shirts that I guess I should do something with. This fabulous quilt is a great inspiration! I already have that fabric that you have on the back, so now I just need to get going on the t-shirt part. Thanks for showing us this!

    Wow, it turned out great! My husband also rides, but I doubt I can get him to let me take his tee's and quilt them.

    That's awesome...My DH is also into bikes and riding. He actually collects vintage Schwinn's (29 now)...but your quilt is way too cool.
