Several months ago I was asked if I could make a t-shirt quilt for a friend who lost her husband a couple of years ago. She showed up with a laundry basket full of t-shirts. She wanted a Queen size quilt but lives in Florida so we didn't want it to be too heavy. We went through the t-shirts to prioritize the ones she really wanted in the main quilt and said I could do what I wanted with the rest and the quilt pattern was totally up to me. Well not only did we end up with what turned out to be more like a King size quilt but 2 lap quilts and a pillow! I used every t-shirt including any logos or images that were on the sleeves or pockets. I used the lightest batting I could find and I'm so happy with how they came out!!! The pictures aren't the best but I did the best I could with all of the rainy days we've been having and they needed to make their way to Florida this week. So here we are, the last several months of sewing.
UPDATE!!! All of the hero patterns have now been released so I can share my finished quilt top. For all of the free patterns go to fandominstitches.com The title block pattern which I designed can be found here . I created this block to go along with Big Hero 6 character blocks created by another designer that I tested. I have it all put together and trust me it looks amazing. But since her patterns have not been published yet I will just show you the title block. It measures approx. 36x14. Click here for the pattern. As soon as I see the rest of the patterns published I will put a link here. ~Enjoy and happy sewing. If you use my patterns please send me photos of your finished blocks or post them in the comments, I'd love to see them!! This pattern is free for personal and non-profit use only. Not to be used for manufacture or distribution. Sale of this pattern or quilts made from this pattern is prohibited.
