When I made one for my son , I had never heard of T-Shirt Quilt . I just cut an sewed them together, never used any fusible stuff. He is still using that quilt and it has been about 8years. And mine was done all by hand. no sewing machine than. joyce j

I am considering order a book from www.TooCoolTshirtQuilts.com to learn how to make t-shirt quilts without sashing or interfacing. I've only made 2 of the t-shirt quilts and am hoping to learn more with the book they have advertised.

I like Tricot interfacing. It is a knit fusible. You put the stretchiest of the tricot, the opposite way as the stretchiest of the shirt. It gives the block a nice hand and is not heavy. use your coupon at JoAnns. I buy it by the bolt.

I just made my first t-shirt wall hanging and used Pellon SOF-Shape Interfacing Fusible for Light to Heayweight fabrics. It worked quite well. Here is a picture of it the finished wall hanging. I will use the SOF-SHape again....especially when I get it for 40% off at Hobby Lobby.
