I've been wanting to make a few quilts by ONLY using fabric I can buy here locally.

I started by buying some shirts. So far I've made 4 tops from the shirts. This is the latest one.

I'll show the other ones when I finish them, but this is one finished today.

It definitely takes more time to work with clothing. Lots more.

But I got the neat idea of leaving on the labels from a lady who lives in Spain (off this board). I think it adds interest. Here are some of them: Remember, all these shirts were purchased used here in Poland.

Thanks. You're too kind. I don't post the "not so interesting" ones!

What a fabulous job you did. I've only made one quilt from every day clothing, and I can agree with how much more time it takes.

Love your quilt and the labels.

Cute top with the labels.

Talk about taking quilting back to its roots.....using what you have and what is local to make a work of art.

You did it and it's terrific. Love the labels too, I look forward to seeing the rest when you are done.
