    Default Long time coming tee shirt quilt for daughter

    Our DD is 30 and I finally got tired of shuffling her tee shirts around storage. One shirt was from elementary school soccer (purple), some from junior high & HS volleyball, HS softball and cheerleading, one from college (U. of IL), several she designed for the ASPCA Marathon run in Champaign IL, and one from Duke (her serious boyfriend). I apologize to the person on the board who posted her beautiful setting, but I copied her design for the center (smaller squares) and then adapted the larger designs to fit around the edges. It will be backed with the same gray Minkie and quilted with an overall design, by my friend who does long arming. Soooooo glad to get these out of storage and into HER house LOL. Hope she enjoys her surprise Christmas gift ! It ended up being about 108" square.

    One of the nicest t-shirt quilts I've ever seen! I would think the person whom you copied will be flattered!

    Wonderful t-shirt quilt! It looks like a version of a BBQ pattern.

    The first time I saw a Tee Shirt quilt done in the original BQ pattern I loved it. And now there are two of them! Great job!
