This is the tee shirt quilt top I made for my nil for Christmas using her tee shirts and uniform shirt from her college team. She was the pitcher. It is to be quilted when I get it back. It will be back with school's fabric. I appreciate all the help I received for this group!
Thanks

Thank you for posting it! I am working on one for my son and I do have a question! On your blocks that have a small tshirt how did you measure for the background? I am stuck and can't seem to find an answer. I think I know but am unsure that I am right!
Thanks for your help!!!

On the small tee shirts, I cut them as large as I could. Then I added enough border to make it the size of my large blocks. The large ones were 17 1/2 in. If my small one was 7 inches, The borders would be 5 1/4 on each side. (Think my math is correct lol)
