Default Daughter's T-shirt quilt

This was made from my late husband's University of Georgia t-shirts, as well as some of my daughter's from when she was little. It's been a long time in the making but finally finished it for my daughter's Christmas last year. The shirts had such different sizes that I had to "fill in" with collegiate fabric, which made this a little bit different than most t-shirt quilts. The strangely shaped piece of red fabric is actually the yoke off a favorite western shirt of her dad's. The label on the back is the pocket off the same shirt, with a special note inside. The quilting pattern is dog paws. Not perfect, but I'm proud of it and she loved it.

You did a magnificent job of incorporating all those different sized pieces into one quilt. Truly a labor of love.
