More about the T-shirt quilts

Here is number 2 of the quilts I made for Candy to donate to the Relay for Life. Since there are lots of different colored t-shirts I thought this paint splatter fabric would work well as sashing and backing. This one has a simple meander, Hobbs 80/20 batting and Permacore Yellow thread.

Speaking of close-ups, here's one of Candy's t-shirt #1:

Pretty Breast Cancer Ribbons

The Breast Cancer T-shirt Quilt was picked up today and they loved it. I think it's the nicest T-shirt quilt I've done. The quilting is a simple ribbon meander and the batting is Hobbs 80/20 with pink PermaCore thread.



Several of the shirts only had a small image rather than a full front or back. I sewed two of them together to make some corner blocks.




There was one shirt that had this little embroidered ribbon and I sashed it and placed it on this empty space.
