#2 will be basically the same but I may have to go with some other colors to go around the blocks if I don't have enough of the red and blue. These are the memorial quilts I'm making and was wondering about using some the young man's t-shirts as backing. After asking though I think it may be too hard. I still need to add borders and I'm open to suggestions. I have a small amount of stash and this is what I have that might work. I think I can afford to go buy a couple yards to do borders if need be. What I need now is opinions! The backing if not made from tshirts will probably be some flannel scraps I have that I will piece together. Or if one of these works I could buy a few yards to do the backing.
