This is the kind of quilt that would live on the couch and be very well loved (and used!) My dad is planning to give me a bunch of his old shirts to quilt with, I think this will be one of the patterns I try :) He's a big guy, so there should be enough for all his grandsons! (and parts of quilts for his granddaughters)

Those XXL shirts have a LOT of fabric in them. You'll be surprised at how far they go. I've also done Smoky Mtn. Stars, a churn dash, and a plaid-ish pattern out of my shirts collection: [ATTACH=CONFIG]560013[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]560012[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]560011[/ATTACH] And just recently I finished this Carolina Crossroads top, by Bonnie Hunter, from her Scraps and Shirttails book: [ATTACH=CONFIG]560014[/ATTACH] Shirts make amazing quilts! |
