    Default Finished t-shirt quilt

    I finished my daughter's Tshirt quilt. I just need to wash it at the laundromat. I think there are 70 shirts involved. I let her lay it out. I had to be creative in spots to fill gaps. It is wider at the bottom then the top. I birthed and tied it. I probably would not do it this way again. I did not stabilize the shirts.
    She was on a competitive unicycle team from 1999-200, competing in several national and world events.

    That must be a record for number of T-shirts in a quilt! Your daughter must be thrilled.
