T-Shirt Quilt


These are the two t-shirt quilts that I did after attending a t-shirt quilt class at B&B Sewing in Victoria, Texas. First one was for my dancing daughter, the second one was for a remberance quilt for Stanly school....it was a fundraiser quilt. The quilts are really easy to make. I made mine on my Singer Featherweight 221 Sewing Machine.

Sample Quilt by Deloris Pickens

Here are some zooms on some of the blocks.....

Now, mother says that using the 1/4 inch patchwork foot with the featherweight 221, makes about the best straight stitch out there! (Of course we sell that particular patchwork foot.)
