Smile Hi from Scotland

Hi my name is Maxine and this is my first time on this forum, I class myself as a self taught patchworker and I use the term quilter loosely because I am not very good at it and try to avoid it if at all possible. I have made several quilts and my newest project will be a t shirt quilt for my son, I would appreciate any tips from all you experienced ladies.

Welcome from Ontario, Canada. Most quilters use a light weight inner facing ironed to the back of t- shirts to reduce the stretch and make them easier to sew together. There are some great t- shirt quilts here on QB.

Hello Maxine!
Welcome from Minnesota!
My granddaughter has been saving t-shirts for a quilt, too!
Have fun with it!
