Memory t-shirt quilt
I lost my dad unexpectedly about little over a month ago. I’ve made some memory bears with his shirts and jeans but I wanted to make a few quilts too. I’ve never made a quilt before and hope this turns out ok 😬 these are the blocks I have so far.

@Kara this one is for my mom but I don’t think she’ll care if it’s not perfect. My dad would say the imperfections is what make it unique. I’m not entering it in a competition so as long as I’m actually able to finish it and the blocks aren’t completely cattywompus I’ll be happy. I now give even more props to people who quilt because this isn’t for the weak lol.
Love it. Sorry for your loss. I'm originally from Sarasota but living in Michigan! I want to make something similar with my husband's band t shirts!
Those look great!! I recently started quilting as well. The BEST advice I've gotten is "a finished quilt is better than a perfect quilt." If you're a perfectionist it's easy to get lost in the little details, and quilting is a LOT of work. But you won't notice the little mistakes when you're surrounded by a physical reminder of your dad's life. Can't wait to see the finished piece!
