She actually has a book out called "Scraps and Shirttails".

I made her "Smokey Mt Star" Quilt: I love going to the Goodwill too but never thought about getting the shirts that she made her quilt from: Now when I go I look for the biggest size shirts and you should see the cashier when I buy XXXXL shirts::: LOL
