    Default T-shirt quilt for a friend

    My neighbor died suddenly this summer. And his wife asked if I'd make a t-shirt quilt from some of his favorite shirts. I told her that I haven't made one before, but she said she trusted me. How do you turn that down...lol. I was nervous, but for my first one I think it turned out OK. And she was thrilled with it, and that's all that matters. It measures about 78" x 92". I hope it brings her some comfort.
