I than do a large stipple over the entire quilt top when it is pieced together. What ever method you use it will be beautiful!!

Have made 17 t-shirt quilts. Only one important thing to remember: back t-shirt fabrics with fusible tricot interfacing! Pellon makes Stacy Easy Knit. I always buy a bolt from JoAnns with my 40% - 50% coupons. Check the web for many ways to put quilts together.

Goodness, I looked at Joanns and the interfacing is really expensive.. I have another dilema ,, I want to use a Western Ky University collegiate print for the back , but I cant seem to find it anywhere , any suggestions?
