T-Shirt Rag Quilts

Posted in Sewing, tagged Rag Quilt, T-shirt quilt on April 1, 2019| 1 Comment »

We had the best class this weekend with these three ladies making T-shirt Rag Quilts from their old t-shirts. It is such a great project to repurpose and use those shirts just T-shirt Rag Quilt washed taking up drawer space. Hearing all the stories about the shirts was great fun. This is a terrific project and the quilts are a wonderful addition to your home…soft and cozy…great to snuggle up under and watch a movie. If you missed this one don’t worry, we have another one coming up on Saturday, April 6th but register now to get in by clicking this link.
