She explains in the video. You use partial seams, which turned out to be very easy.
Thank you for the explanation and the 2 videos you used to make the quilt. I watched them and they are very informative. Happy quilting to you! |
Very nice quilt and what a lot of memories for him as he looks thru the shirts. Very creative of you to put the back of the shirt on the back of the quilt. Lucky grandson.

My grandson, who has some learning difficulties, but excels in music, theater, etc., asked me to make a t-shirt quilt and brought be 39 t-shirts, many of which had backs with cast member names on them. Here's what I made--my first t-shirt quilt. I put the t-shirt backs on the quilt back. Hope he'll like it; I'm very happy with the way it came out. This board solved a big problem for me with the suggestion that I use waxed paper to cover the rubbery logos on the quilt while quilting.
Thanks in advance. Alma |

I love the Layout on your quilt. Did the waxed paper prevent the needle from making holes in the logos or what was its purpose? I have a t-shirt top done and am struggling with how I can quilt over the rubbery logos and not have the needle poke a hole in the rubbery logo or causing it to snag like a snag. Hope this makes sense.
Thanks in advance. Alma |

Yes! The waxed paper (or tissue paper also will work--according to the response I got on the board http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...t-t287884.html) prevents the rubbery logos from sticking to the presser foot. It worked great!
