I have a question out on the size. I have made about 30 - 12 inch blocks so far. I have a question out to the future owner as to what size they want it. twin - 60x84, big throw of 72x72 or double of 84x84.
Lessons learned - use interfacing on everything except non stretchy jeans! I need to unpick about 3 blocks and add interfacing and then will restitch. I'll make a few more blocks today and then will be stitching it together. My hope is to pin it tonight and quilt it tomorrow. Fingers crossed. I used my trusty 6.5 inch ruler to make most of the blocks.
I have never made a t-shirt quilt good luck with it
ReplyDeleteThat's looking good, Deb! I like how you used squares of the fabric and t-shirt logos, too. Sorry about the unpicking, though - that is never fun!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great. After doing something similar, I know how much work it is to figure out the pattern and layout and make it look right.
ReplyDeleteLooking really neat, Deb!! When I do crazy quilts I have to use some kind of backing/interfacing too...those slippery/stretchy fabrics just move all around if I don't. Anyway, you've got a handle on it now and it's looking good...

Your hexagon piece is really growing and is turning out so pretty, Deb.
ReplyDeleteI know nothing about interfacing and it kind of scares me, LOL. But it sounds like a very useful thing esp. for these stretchy kind of fabrics. Hope the Sky dome outing went well. I forget what it is called, sorry. But it sounds like a lot of fun.
This is going to be neat! I've never used jeans in a t-shirt quilt. The owner will love this. ~Jeanne
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic, can't wait to see it finished!
