Making memories


I thought I would share with you a picture of a t-shirt quilt my daughter just made. We saw one of these at a graduation party and thought it was a cool way to use up t-shirts.
Seems like every time you turn around in high school or college either you have to buy a t-shirt for a sporting or club event. Any way, it makes a nice memory quilt instead of the t-shirts crammed in the drawers. I am very proud that my daughter likes to sew. In today's fast paced world it almost seems like a lost art. I just helped with the binding and she did everything else. Please excuse the wrinkles and shadows.

That's really cool! I've wanted to do something like that for my kids, too. Kudos to your daughter for making that on her own!

Tanya, I need to do something like that too! :D My husband is always wearing t-shirts, and so is my son. We have all of my husband's holey t-shirts in the basement just waiting for a project like this. That's a really cool quilt!
