Default T shirt Quilt

A friend commissioned me to make a tshirt quilt for her father in law. He belongs to a car club and these are the shirts from the various meet-ups over the years. His specific car is pictured in the center t shirt so she wanted that one displayed more obviously.

What a great looking quilt! That sashing fabric is perfect for setting off the blocks.

Love the way you used the black and white flag print to put it all together. My husband is a member of a car club, so I'll have to remember this design! Thank you for posting.

As everyone notes...perfect sashing. Not only does it fit the style but it adds the emphasis the neutral backgrounds need. The placement of blocks as well make for a well balanced quilt!

That is so colorful. I am making one for my first Grandson to graduate. I need 4 more t-shirts from him but he is still wearing them as school is still on. Our kids all are back in school full days now. So far so good.

Beautifully done! I agree that the sashing is a perfect fabric to set off the blocks.
