Tshirt Quilt Complete!

Another Tshirt quilt "in the can."  While I don't mind the cutting or piecing of these monsters, a heavy Tshirt quilt, queen-sized, can be a beast to fit through the tiny throat space of my DSM (domestic sewing machine.  Because the throat space is small and some Tshirt logos can wreak havoc on the thread, I did a simple meander.  

 I used a generic tan for the top, as the colors were so varied that matching the thread to each block would have been horrible, and a dark brown/wine color for the backing.

Most of the Tshirts were leftover running shirts from her dad, who died several years ago.  A few were terribly worn, so I reinforced what I could and quilted carefully around and over worn spots.

 I love the backing my customer chose for the backing and matching throw pillows.  (In fact, I wish I had ordered extra for myself!)

Now on to other projects!  (And if you're ever interested in a Tshirt quilt for yourself, please contact me!
