A quilt for one of my grandson-in-laws. He asked one day if I knew someone that made t-shirt quilts and my response for for who? When he said it was for him of course I was ready to tackle my first t-shirt quilt. Love the result even though it grew to be quite large. The Illusions block is one of my favorite MSQC tutorials and it is really effective with the t-shirts. The flame fabric worked out well for framing the blocks and the woodgrain was something from my stash as was the plaid for the backing. Some of the shirts had the large display while others just had the chest patch and the department on the back. To balance the blocks I appliqued the chest patches to the backs of the shirts. The final block is the extra chest patches and a couple of things I printed on fabric and appliqued. The sewing including all the quilting was done on my Brother NX2000 so yes you can quilt a large quilt at home. The open space in the t-shirts took some thought and I am pleased with the free-motion flames. Still a lot to learn but I am loving each new challenge. Keep quilting and keep sharing.
