    Someone asked me what is used in a T-shirt quilt to keep theblocks from stretching while working with them. As I have never made one myself, I couldn't answer. Would you tell me, please? Marge L.

    I would never of thought to use gray for the sashing and borders - It looks fabulous!

    Sure! You need to use iron on light weight pellon. This is why you can't hand quilt them.

    Great quilt. I've never made a T-shirt quilt but I hear they are a challenge with the odd sizes and the stretch fabric.
