I agree about the fusables already mentioned. I just spent the morning cutting apart a large tub full of tee shirts to make a quilt. The person they belong to got a full scholarship to Harvard for wrestling. He was also a classmate of my daughter's. Some of the shirts are in such bad shape that I think I will photo transfer them instead of using the actual shirt. Others are so fadded that I think I will use my fabric pens to touch up the colors. The hardest part will be deciding on the size of the basic block based on the largest motif and then combining the smaller motifs to make blocks the same size. I will use sashing it also helps stabilize. Several of the shirts are sweat shirts. I think I may try shaving some of the fleece off of the backs so they are not so bulky. They even included a couple pair of his wrestiling shorts that are made out of that very flimsy "nylon"? fabric that has holes all over it for ventilation. I have no idea how I am going to include that.
