    Default A different Tshirt quilt

    I was surfing and found this quilt by Ben Venom. What an amazing talent this man has. Hope it inspires some one to step outside of the usual t-shirt quilt.... http://myloveforyou.typepad.com/my_l...ben-venom.html

    If you read through the article theres a link to his site and many more quilts.

    I don't like T-shirt quilts, I don't like skull's, I don't like snakes, and I don't like Metal music ... but the result is stunning!!

    Thank you for sharing - that quilt is really cool! I better not show it to my husband, he'll want me to make him one. I wonder why he made it so large....

    Here's a link to MY favorite alternatively-styled t-shirt quilt. I love the quilt, however the story behind it is very sad.

    I really like what he does! This doesn't mean I like heavy metal, skulls, snakes, and all the other stuff. I do like the departure from block t-shirts, taking pieces and creating a design. Then again, I am a fan of landscape and freestyle quilts and free motion quilting. Thanks for sharing this link. At first I cringed, then took a closer look at his design skills. Quilting is for everyone!
