The T-Shirt Quilt for Christmas


Another project that is due very soon is a Christmas present for a family member. I’m making him a t-shirt quilt out of his old shirts.

My mom pointed out to me that he had a clothes drawer that would barely shut. It was overflowing with old, holey, worn-out shirts.
A t-shirt quilt was obviously the PERFECT Christmas gift for him. And men are so hard to shop for so, yeah! 
Now, I just have to get it done in the next week and then get it to my Mom so she can quilt it, so she can get it back to me, so I can bind it-before Christmas.
No problem, right??  Winking smile

I’ve cut out the shirts..

I’ve stabilized them all with French Fuse and made them into 15” squares.

I’m happy with the squares, now I need to go to the LQS and find some coordinating fabric. I’m thinking flannel, plaid, colors?? Not sure…

It won’t be hard, I just need to carve out the time.

I can’t wait to see the look on his face when it’s done. I know it’s going to be great!!
