My First Quilt!

Well, after wanting to quilt for years and years and YEARS I finally finished my first quilt top!
I did not do the machine quilting but I did EVERYTHING ELSE! 
I'm very happy with the colors in the fabric. It was fun to see it take shape as I
kept changing the blocks around getting the patterns and colors in JUST the RIGHT
place. Taking the T-shirt quilt idea and expanding it to look more like a nice quilt 
to enjoy and share for years to come! I actually made this for my friend Lori.  
She loves LIFE IS GOOD T-shirts and had quite a few T's that were too old to wear 
. . . so I said let's make a T-shirt quilt! I have made a few in the past but wanted
 this t-shirt quilt to look more like a real quilt so I searched for a pattern then 
adapted it some and made it my own.

Well done! I love that you took the t-shirt quilt idea, and then made it look more like a real quilt. I will have to try that.
