I started piecing together my first T-shirt quilt yesterday. This one is for my niece who will be graduating from high school this May. The T-shirts represent different phases and aspects of her life as a young girl and adult. It will be a nice keepsake to carry off to college. I decided to use batiks for the framing of each shirt. I'm not quite sure how it is going to turn out, which I think is the beauty and fun of the process. I have several different colors of the same patterns. Maybe it will have rainbow feel to it when I am done. I love colors so much! The binding will be a pattern in black. I think multiple colors look best bound in black. Keep checking back to see more progress. I am hoping to post one picture for every day I am able to work on it. Oh...and the snow is still on the ground!!! It is too cold to melt, which is rare for Arkansas!!
