Fabulous Tee Shirt Quilts

104 color photos and diagrams with full color on every page. Tee shirt quilts recall important events in a person's life. Combined with fabrics that celebrate a favorite activity or place, they become uniquely personal keepsakes. The book gives you information on how to: choose fabrics to show off your motifs to their best; cut the motifs from the tee shirts, with expert advise to prevent stretching; reinforce the motifs to make them strong; combine motifs of different sizes; camouflage little holes and stains. There are nineteen pages explaining how to use tee shirt logos in quilts plus step-by-step directions for the making of six different quilts, and details on finishing the quilts: quilting, tying, binding, and making quilt labels. The book gives you the same information that the author provides to her students, which is how to turn treasured tee shirts into very personal and beautiful quilts. A tee shirt quilt is like a scrapbook, but it's better because you can sleep under it!
