Notre Dame-Michigan Game Day {T-shirt Quilt}


I was commissioned to make a T-shirt Quilt that include only Notre Dame vs Michigan Game T-shirts.  I have to admit, this Marquette University alum girl twinged just a tad, but I powered through!  She requested a queen and with only about enough t-shirt logos to make 14 blocks, I knew I had to put my thinking cap on.

My original mockup

 I remembered that a friend had asked me to work up an estimate for a simple Notre Dame logo and I worked the math to fit it in the center for this one.
I surrounded it by the t-shirt blocks and then added a gold border to frame it all.  


The fabric choices are very mottled solids gave the quilt some depth.



And, as always, I back my t-shirt quilts with minky, this one was Shannon Fabrics Navy.  Quilted it on Ole Besty Longarm with a large meandering and bound it with the gold fabric by Moda to mimic a second "frame".



It was a big hit for Christmas!

  1. Tommy has an assortment of Lacoste Polo shirts that he has worn for quite a long while without the texture looking worn or the shadings getting blurred. At a sensible value, he suggests Lacoste Polo shirts and for outside headwear, Lacoste caps. hills cop letterman jacket

  7. Who tries to avoid a deal? For this reason I recommend seeing on the web for your T Shirts prior to burning through cash on petroleum, getting into your vehicle and heading to your shopping center, where you need to right off the bat track down leaving, than pay for it. fake off white hoodie
