That looks great but I would be clueless as to where to start. :( Lisa's Chaos's last blog post..A Day in the Park

Fun! It’s too bad that VW fabric from Heather Ross isn’t in the right colors…it’s so adorable

fun! I made a t-shirt quilt about 8 years ago, but I totally botched it, so it’s been sitting folded up in my basement forever. One day I will get around to remaking it.

My vote is the fabric you have underneath now, sounds like a fun project. Can’t wait to see how it turns out!

I made a t-shirt quilt a few years ago out of race t-shirts. I know *nothing* about sewing, but I used some instructions I found on the internet. Took them to the fabric store and found a wonderful salesperson who helped me get everything I needed. I did it while I was home for the holidays so that I could use my mom’s sewing machine. It turned out great — and that’s me, again, with no sewing experience. You know what you’re doing, so it should turn out great. :)

The one thing I’ve never done is actually “quilt” it, since I didn’t want stitching going through all the shirts.
