This was a fun quilt I made for my husband. He has quite a collection of t-shirts from things he's passionate about -darts, basketball, weightlifting, running- and instead of tossing all the very worn ones, I made them into a quilt. My one regret? I wish I'd thought to do this years ago when he still had shirts from all the races he's done like Bay to Breakers and little 5K's from over the years. I couldn't bring myself to cut up his marathon shirt, so I scanned it into the computer and used transfer paper to iron it onto white fabric. The bonus of that was, I could enlarge it a bit. I totally lucked out and found the PERFECT backing fabric for this - dart boards on flannel!
