This shirt made me laugh when I unpacked it for the memorial quilt.

Working on a memorial quilt, and it has some cool shirts! The box of shirts traveled through 5 states last week!

Love turning tshirts from annual events into a blanket. This one is headed to the river for use on cooler boating days. A great way to remember the good times while functional and durable!

Thank you Denise, for the opportunity to create this full size collage style quilt! Each piece of fabric tells a story and quilting with 3 layers adds a traditional flare.

(41 shirts, collage style, quilted with batting, 5 weeks, polka dot fabric purchased by customer)

Announcement: All orders have been fulfilled!!!!! Thank you for keeping me busy since October!

If you have any interest in providing the fabric and clothing for a blanket, quilt, pillows or cushion covers then please schedule a time for us to meet!

There is enough time to get a tshirt quilt made for graduation as it takes me 4-6 weeks depending on the amount of sewing.

Picture is a teaser for my next post...

Every so often, I treat myself to a new tool for the quilting business. This is my newest addition, a walking Foot. It is created from two pieces of parts because I couldn't find a "Super High Shank" walking Foot for the old Kenmore 158.19310. I'm loving it!

This quilt top and a backing were delivered to a customer today. They are headed to Janesvile, to be long arm quilted in March. I'm hoping for a photo of it finished.
