yay!!! I had forgotten how much i dearly loved quilting. although bending over the sewing machine makes my back ache.
start with a pile 'o t-shirts.
chop 'em up, and buy nifty cotton batting and some border material (with gratuitous cello shot for Laura)
sew 'em up nice and straight
and add your border. voila! a quilt top.
Now waiting for the backing material which is a gift from a really super friend who wants to de-stash.

A cello just for me!
cool quilt. I wish I had the talent to do that.
I am impressed!
Get dreadlocks, and I'll comment on your blog too.
Or make a really cool quilt. Because I'm impressed. It's so......straight!
That quilt is the best! I've always wanted to make something for my best friend out of all the t-shirts she buys but does not wear.
I like the way you constructed that! My mom used to make t-shirt quilts on consignment, but she would interface the t-shirt design onto a square of fabrice and aplique the edges and then piece it all together. I like the way you've done it here.
Is making a quilt out of tshirts as hard as people make it out to be?
