    Okay, I am quite on here most of the time, but felt like I wanted ya'lls opinion. This is the reason I took quilting lessons a few months ago. My daughter gave me her Drill Team t-shirts about 5 years ago and asked me to make them into a quilt. Well, I had never made a quilt before. So I kept putting off.

    Well here is the top finally finished. It is laying on my King Size Bed. Still have back to do and then off to LAQ after I find one.

    It's spectacular!!! I have never seen such a beautiful quilt made out of t-shirts! You did a wonderful job. However it must have been an extremely difficult quilt to make for a quilting newbie. You took on a very hard pattern and no wonder you never plan to make another. But what a marvelous job you did!
