    Default My first T-shirt quilt
    For over twenty years, I've been attending a magicians' convention and often getting a t-shirt. Well, this is the twenty-fifth anniversary, so I converted the shirts into a quilt and gave it to the married couple who run the convention. The block in the center of the upper row has three pieces I had printed at Spoonflower. They commemorate different milestones of the convention over the years.

    What a thoughtful gift for a couple who has stepped forward each year for 25 years. I bet they were delighted!

    You did an excellent job with the first t-shirt quilt. Just always be careful about sewing thru any of the plastic paints.
