    I took the liberty of bookmarking...these look fantastic and my middle step-son recently asked if I would make him one with his vast collection of treasured T's.

    They are a little more time consuming - but the best tip I have is to make sure to back the shirts with interfacing BEFORE you cut.

    The shirts are just too stretchy otherwise.

    It's a great way to keep all those shirts that don't fit and still make them useful...

    I did one for my DD (sorority shirts). Your shirts quilts are wonderful. She loves hers but it was sure a learning experience.

    Wow, cool ideas thanks for sharing!

    I have some teddy bear t-shirts, now I know what to do with them. What type of interfacing do you use?
