First Quilt
I'm in the middle of doing the same thing. This is my first quilt, I had to ignore all the forums that said not to use stretch fabric because a lot of his shirts were stretch. I have gotten off center but I've continued. My daughter will always have Mom's first imperfect quilt from Dad's shirts.

The humblest quilts are often the most loved - these quilts will be very very loved and bring back so many warm memories. I love the pockets. I made a small quilt like this of my dad's shirts for my sister, who was just 4 when he died (I was 16). She told me that later on, when she knew how to write that she would write him letters and put them in the pockets.
