I know what you mean. I was scared to post my first picture too but everyone is so nice. Even if someone has constructive criticism they do it in such a nice way, no one get's their feelings hurt. I have come to love this board!

When making t-shirt quilts, the first thing you want to do is apply stabilizer onto the backs of the shirts (after cutting to size). Most shirts are very stretchy and this helps with that.

The first t-shirt quilt I did, I didn't stabilize (didn't know to) and it was ok. It was hard quilting by machine but I managed. It is just alot easier to stabilize if you plan on machine quilting, at least for me.
