Step by Step

This is a very basic list of the steps to follow:

1. Collect and launder all clothing to be used in the quilt.
2. Prepare photo sheets, resizing as needed.
3. Prepare t-shirts, cut out 2" larger around logo, then stabilize.
4. Cut t-shirts to exact size.
5. Stabilize other fabric as needed
6. Lay out blocks and sashing. Join blocks to form rows; join rows.
7. Add a border if desired.
8. Layer backing, batting and quilt top.

• For basting I like to use 505 spray and fix. www.sprayandfix.com/505.html

9. Quilt as desired.
10. Make or purchase binding and finish edges.
11. Make a label for the back of the quilt. Include inforation like; who it was made for, why
it was made, who made it, when, where they lived, date made, etc...


This shows my design on graph paper and the finished quilt. You can see darker lines in the pattern. This shows the sections that I made the quilt in and then sewed each section together.
