    Thumbs up A great way to make a t-shirt quilt

    Before I even knew how to quilt, I made two of these jersey/fleece quilts. Such a wonderful way to use your T-shirts. I love this! (I hope you can click on the URL, otherwise copy and paste.)

    T-shirt quilts have been being made for over the last 20 years. I have enjoyed seeing the different designs that members have posted here.

    I think this is an entirely different way to make them. Take a look and see. There is no batting, no spray starch needed, so very easy. I did know women have been making quilts from t-shirts for 20 years, but I don't think this is the way they have ever been done.

    This seems like a great (and easy) way to do the t-shirt quilt. Thanks for the posting!

    Wow, I wish I would have known about this method when I made a giant fleeced back t shirt quilt for my BIL. It would have been much easier! Thanks for sharing.

    Ladies, your positive responses have lifted my spirits today. Thank you. (aside -- I do not know the person who owns this web-site on how to make these quilts. I know I love this process though. I have taken so much from this forum, I just wanted to give something back.)

    Thanks so much, I was wanting to make a T-Shirt Lap Quilt for my son this Christmas. Sounds so easy.
