It's been a long time...I have all kinds of pictures of the projects I've been working on, but this is the best, and most fun.
Through the magic of Facebook and a grad school friend (huge thanks to Stacie S.) I was connected with a woman who wanted to make a memory quilt for her son. He's an adult now, but she had saved a ton of his t-shirts, from camps, places, events, you name it. He's also moved away from CT, so she included shirts from all the Boston teams (thank GOD I didn't have to sew NY themed stuff, it would have hurt my Massachusetts soul).
It ended up being a little more than a twin sized quilt. It's on a queen sized bed below, so you could see the sides and the full length.
I loved making this quilt. I was so happy with the result, and I think my customer was too. Of course, Ben has already set aside shirts so I can make him one. But I told him, he has to get in line.
Finished size 60" x 90" |

Love the t-shirt! Made one for my daughter last year, included shirts from elementary school, high school, on up through college. Came out great. By the way, I also made one in the mid 90's for my son. Wish I would have taken a picture of it.
He used it till it was threadbare.
