I'm only slightly embarassed to admit that I have a brown paper bag tucked away on a high shelf in my closet that has written on it in huge Sharpie-drawn letters (and I'm not kidding here), "T-shirts of sentimental value! DO NOT throw away!" My mom made so much fun of this bag of t-shirts and wondered how any t-shirt could hold enough sentimental value for me to declare they not ever be touched. Inside the bag are t-shirts from my time at Space Camp back in 7th grade, from my high school newspaper days and a handful from concerts I attended in college (Smashing Pumpkins, anyone?) I so wish I'd had this cute pattern for turning a concert tee into a baby gown, from This Mama Makes Stuff, when my kids were infants. I may have finally been able to bring that bag down and put all those "important" t-shirts to good use!

I read this and felt very very jealous that you had been to a smashing pumpkin gig. This would have been my teenage dream (still is a bit)

I really love this idea!! I have a lot of concert t-shirts that I never wear, but can't throw out.
Only problem is, I havent got any kids to make these for!!

Another idea (stolen shamelessly from the book "Generation T") is to cut squares out of your shirts, just to showcase the print, and then turn those squares into a quilt!
