    Default My Version of a T-Shirt Quilt

    I had a few inquiries from friends about making t-shirt quilts, but I gently turned them down, saying that t-shirt quilts just weren't my thing. Then I decided that I should actually try making one before I said "No" anymore. I started with about 15 t-shirts, a lot were my own, and I bought a few kid's shirts from eBay to fill in the holes. The shirts were backed with a light-weight fusible interfacing, I used an applique pressing sheet, and I let my creativity flow. I actually loved the process, and would gladly make another one. Finished size 64 x 92", titled "Fangs for the Memories"

    Thanks for looking, and have a beautiful day!

    I like it ! Your layout shows your creativity .... and the backing sets it off wonderfully.

    You did a great job. I love doing t-shirt quilts as well. My back hurts when I stand so long pressing the interfacing to the shirts, but I love how fun they turn out at the end.
