tee shirt quilt 3

The shirts my sister gave me, there were some that had small squares on them the fronts and a few that had designs on the sleeves.  So rather than sew them together to make blocks, I used them as a row, a really skinny row.



I love how this quilt is coming together!

Tee shirt quilt 2

 I finished cutting and trimming all the tee shirts and have it put up on my design wall! 

It's quite big!! It fills up almost all of my design wall (top to bottom!)

Masks

 Since we have to wear masks, I have made some and decorated them :)

This is one with my school logo since I have to wear one when I am in the building.  There aren't any students in the building, but we still need them.

Tee shirt quilt 1

My youngest sister asked me if I would make a tee shirt quilt for her, so of course I said yes!  The first part seems to take the longest, cutting the shirts apart and ironing on the interfacing.

I have started cutting them apart and putting them up on my design wall.

Quarantine Quilt 2

During Quarantine because of everything with school and such, I wanted something easy to work on.  This is my second quarantine quilt. 

I wanted to work on something fairly easy, and sewing all those 16 patches definitely fit that!

Spool blocks

I haven't taken a picture of my spool blocks in a while.


I currently have 295 blocks! I don't have enough room on my design wall once I make some more ;)

Here are the 31 blocks I have for my first quarantine quilt.


I'm not sure how many blocks I will make, probably 35!

Finished quilt

I showed this quilt on the long arm.  But here is a picture of the full top.  It was hard to get a full shot of, because it's quite large!


Here is the fabric I picked for the backing.  And you can see the binding.  


I decided to do a teal binding, I think it worked well even with the orange.


I was trying to sew the binding and noticed the quilt was not moving. . .Earl was NOT helping.


AT ALL.


This boy loves his quilts!
