Hey all,
I finished this t-shirt quilt UFO! It's a 75th birthday present for my cousin who deposited her t-shirt collection on me several years ago LOL!

It's lap size, approx. 72" x 54".

Thanks for looking.

I think you got the numbers switched and it's 57, and I bet she would agree with me. She will be surprised and very happy with the quilt. It's a great memento of happy times.

looks great--I like how you varied the size of blocks based on t-shirt design--that is not easy to do and get it all to fit!

Good job, Rob! And one more off your list :)

Happy New Year

I love how you placed the shirts..I haven't been brave
enough to do one with irregular shapes yet!

congrats on being the quilt of the week on the Home page this week

Wow Rob, for an avante guarde art quilter extraordinaire making a t-shirt quilt must have been excrutiatingly boring for you. Very clever to insert strips of T shirt to makes some blocks look like they are overlapping and layering up on others. I can definitely sympathize with taking a couple of years to get it done, T-shirt quilts are low on my list and I have made several. Take a bow. Your cousin will be very happy. So happy that you shouldn't be surprised if another bag of t-shirts makes its way to your sewing room.

Very nice quilt and it will be a great surprise for your cousin to receive such a nice gift.
