I've made 1 tee shirt quilt. What I did was cut the front and the back apart removing the neck and sleeves, then took each large section and applied fusible interfacing. I cut out the design centering it leaving a inch or two all around. The rest of the tee shirt I cut into long 2 inch strips. I used these strips to trim around smaller squares or make quilt block designs. By doing this I spread the colors throughout the quilt top . When putting it together I used sashing if 2 inch black making the colors pop and a 4 inch border of the same. I had 10 large shirts and made a quilt top to cover a full size bed. The family was thrilled with the gift.
