Variable Quilt with Tshirts

These quilts seem to be a new addition to my store front and a unique experience for me as a quilter. They do cost a little more than the traditional tshirt quilt I create but the customers sure do love the unique look of their quilts. I have creative license in most cases and just piece according to all the t shirts they send so that the blocks are more random.
This customer had some tshirts with some larger designs and then some that were tank tops or maybe just had small graphic designs on the front, so that allowed me to create some units that would go together.
In this quilt the top and bottom are very similar and then the middle section is also the same, so you basically have three units to create the whole quilt.
This customer wanted the same cotton fabric on the front and back and she wanted something very plain. 
This was my first order to Hawaii, I was a little nervous, I have seen some BEAUTIFUL quilts there through photos. The customer wrote to tell me the quilt was Adorable. I love that...

Recent Quilt I have finished in 2013

 

I love the heart, button flannel

This quilt was made for a friends daughter. It has a pretty light blue floral print border and hot pink binding
 
 

A 70 by 70 quilt made for a husbands 30th birthday. It has a pretty charcoal gray flannel backing
 
 
A oversized lap quilt made with baby clothes from a childs first year
 
A twin size quilt with blue fabrics and a pretty blue paisley butterfly flannel on the back. Its a gift for a principal that is retiring.
 
Twin size Spring Summer quilt. Customer sent me the fabrics and I created a really nice lightweight quilt.
 
This quilt is 70 by 70 it was made for a Pastor here in Texas. I was honored to make this quilt.
 
This is a graduation quilt I just finished for a current senior in High School. I did a little extra on this one because I wanted to give her a nicer quilt so it became a twin size quilt instead of another 70 by 70 16 T quilt. It holds 20 Tshirts and 6 appliques.
 
This quilt was very challenging. It was several early years of clothing of a little girl in addition to a crib sheet. I am thankful it turned out well and the little girl loved it. It is twin size.
