This year for Christmas I made my brother a t shirt quilt. He had a ton of shirts taking up closet space from sport's team victories and races he's run. I used a plastic square to cut them all down to the same size.
I cut 2 inch strips and sewed them to the sides and then between each row. This allowed me to be less than perfect. The reality is I don't have the patience or talent to match up corners, so this is the most forgiving way for me to put together blocks...and it makes the quilt a little longer too.
I bought some batting and a soft sheet for the back and I took it to a quilter to attach the two pieces together and then added some binding using the same fabric between each square. Last, I added some dog hair b/c no project is complete without dog hair.
