I used a fusible tricot stabilizer when I made this one. This was actually my first tshirt quilt and it was requested by my favorite Sister-in-law, so the pressure was on. I looked at many of the tshirt quilts on here and wanted something different. I chose to do a nine patch/snowball variation. I had a few issues but none that weren't surmountable. It was fine going together( I would be more careful applying the stabilizer the next time), the quilting was a bit of a challenge as I did it on my longarm. But all-in-all, it turned out fine and she loved it, which is all that really mattered.
