T-Shirt Quilt

Making t-shirt quilts is always an adventure. They are all different because everyone has a different selection of shirts to work with. Every once in awhile I get to make this style of t-shirt quilt – all the logos are about the same size so the blocks can all be cut to the same size.

This means the quilt goes together pretty quickly and then it’s onto the quilt frame to be quilted.

I do love the quilting on this t-shirt quilt. Just look at the back of this quilt.

To a non-quilter this picture probably doesn’t look like much, but I’m sewing on a hanging sleeve. You may be able to see it on the picture of the quilt back. So, rather than using this quilt on the bed it can be hung on the wall using a curtain rod. It’s a wonderful way to show off all those wonderful memories!

Be well,

Wordless Wednesday

Organized for sewing blocks

I know that “Wordless Wednesday” isn’t supposed to have any words, but I feel like I need to add a few.

I was having trouble with my website with my posts not actually posting. The staff at WordPress helped resolve the issue. Guess what? User error, no shocker there. So, if you see several posts appear or receive several emails (if you are a Follower – and I hope you are), this is because the posts that have been queued up just got posted.  Hopefully, the posts will appear correctly now.  And I believe this picture may have been posted before, but let me tell ya – you can never be too organized!

Be well,

Wanda

Mini Marathon T-shirt Quilt

One of the challenges a quilter faces when making a t-shirt quilt is that all the t-shirts are the same color – in this case – white. So, just border each t-shirt with some of her favorite colored fabric. Look how pretty these shirts are now!

Here is the quilt on the frame. As you can see, I had to add a few extra quilt blocks so they would all fit togetger. As I like to say, “It’s just math.” Need a few extra inches here and there to make it work, just make a few 4-patch blocks to make the math work.

I just love the quilting done on these blocks.

This is a picture of the finished quilt. Beautiful!

And this is the beautiful backing fabric. Could it be any more perfect?

 

This quilt turned out so pretty!
