T-shirt Quilts

As this quarantine continues I have a few more closets that I’ve cleaned out!

How about you?  Do you have some favorite t-shirts you really don’t want to part with?

T-shirt quilts are a perfect way to turn those shirts into something that will be loved for years to come.  Below are a few pictures of t-shirt quilts I have made for customers.

Nana’s chair

I don’t know about you but this quarantine has allowed me to get a lot of customer quilts done and finish up some of my own projects.  I have a chair that belonged to my grandmother that I have been wanting to paint and reupholster for several years.  I finally did it and am so happy with how it turned out.  I wasn’t able to go out and buy upholstery fabric so I made my own using a 100% cotton top, a layer of batting and a muslin backing.  Then I quilted it up on my longarm.  It worked perfectly! 

I used the BBFrosch chalk paint powder mixed with a little navy Behr paint I had on hand.  No sanding or stripping necessary.  Sealed it with the BBFrosch clear wax.

I do hope that you and your loved ones are safe and healthy!
