Well, it's not perfect by any means, but I got it finished!! Unfortunately the red material (which I pre-washed, but obviously not enough) bled. You can see it settled in the quilted "x" on a couple of the squares....oh well, I would make another t-shirt rag quilt again any time! It was fun and my daughter really likes it.

It still turned out wonderful!! I like the option that you made it in to a rag quilt and not the usual t-shirt quilt.

Thanks for sharing

Oh! I love it...did you border the t-shirt squares or are they fused/appliqued onto the flannel squares?

Thanks...I fused each t-shirt to the flannel backing and then did the applique stitch...that way I could vary the size of the t-shirt but still keep my squares all the same size and not have to worry about measuring borders.

That is really clever! Never seen anything like it but think it is a great idea.
