This is the time of year I get lots of tshirt quilts in to make for graduation gifts. First I cut out all the shirts and stabilize them with non woven fusible interfacing. Next, I start arranging the shirts on my design wall to get a good balance of color.
This one was made for a gal who got a golf scholarship to college! Impressive, eh?
It was fun because the center block of this Graduation T-shirt Quilt is all embroidery. The intentional misspelling kept making my heart leap every time I glanced at it. I always so paranoid that I’m going to screw up the spelling on an embroidered design. Spelling was always my worst subject and embroidery machines don’t have spell check! 🙂
She was super happy with her quilt and I think it turned out great too!
