    Default Amateur FMQ on t-shirt quilt
    My roommate actually pieced this fabulous t-shirt quilt for a friend of ours who has been everything from National club president to state ambassador. For those of you intimidated by FMQ'ing, here's my humble attempt. My roommate did the SID prior to my contribution, then she did the binding.

    Kool. Coming from someone who doesn't FMQ at all I think your quilting is super. I think that your friend also did a great job on the placement of the shirts with the corner blocks. Sure that he will enjoy the quilt. BrendaK
