Craftzine.com blog: More Fabulous T-Shirt Quilts

More Fabulous T-Shirt Quilts

The T-shirt quilts keep on coming! This time from one of our own, CRAFT & MAKE's Managing Editor, Shawn Connally.

Shawn writes:

Bruce has boxes and boxes of old tees that he always swore he would make a quilt out of someday. But he can't even sew a button on! So I took matters into my own hands (well, a fabulous quiltmaker's hands), and had one made for him a couple of years ago.

See more photos of the beautiful T-shirt quilt on Shawn's flickr set here - Link.

This may be a redundant comment/question - I thought I had posted it earlier this weekend but don't see it...

This is one of the most wonderful t-shirt quilts I have seen. As a mother of a 17 year old headed to college soon I am determined to have his "t-shirt collection" travel with him! This is a great idea!

Did you interface each t-shirt square? If yes, with what product? Did you do the quilting? If yes, how? If no, who then?

Thanks so much for sharing this project!
