JEN...THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! Yes, I really am screaming it...
I spent the month making a queen size (90x108) T-shirt quilt (my first ever, both for type & size) for my grandson who will be graduating in June. I NEVER could have done this if I had not learned that first qayg that you taught. I used the pattern "BQ" by Debbie Bowles (used assorted sports 2 1/2" strips to make the 12 1/2" blocks; decided to do the qayg in 3 sections only because I wanted the back squares (I embroidered them for the story) to kinda float. That made each section 36x90. That section was heavy enough on it's own...by the time I added that last strip I could hardly lift the quilt! I have tennis elbow and a wrist & shoulder problem that came out making the quilt (I guess because it was so heavy). I really must love him! I WILL NEVER MAKE ANOTHER ONE OF THAT SIZE!!! So, again, thank you for the technique.
