I saw somewhere a pattern using mens cotton shirts, 1 red and 5 blue, I think. It ended up in a snowball type quilt, but I don't know where I saw it. Any ideas? Thanks

Doesn't sound familiar. Was it on this board?

Hymmmmmmmmmmm now I am curious. Will follow

I thought it was, but I have searched everywhere on this board and cant see it.

I have no idea either.

It is not Bonnie Hunts pattern is it?

Quiltville maybe??

It sounds like a Bonnie Hunter pattern from her book "Scraps and Shirttails".

I made a faux cathedral windows quilt out of my husbands old shirts & blue jeans. http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-56030-1.htm#1350127

I used 1 blue, 1 red, 1 green, 1 gray & 2 different white with stripes shirts and still have lots of fabric left over from all but one of the white striped shirts. It was meant to be a recliner cover so it's about 6' by 45" Hubby uses it folded in half to cover his legs at night. The weight keeps him from kicking me in his sleep.

Thanks Vicki, That sure is the one. I must bookmark it this time. Betty
