Heavy Metal Rock Band T-Shirt Quilt

Just finished this quilt for a lucky guy from his wife for Valentine's Day. These T-shirts were so nice and well kept. Some of them looked like black velvet. The sashings are a lime green but my pictures on this one are not true as some of the others. The quilt turned out very nice and I am sure he will love it. I used an 18 inch ruler for the blocks as the pictures were very large and I did not want to compromise the shirts in any way.

When my sisters and I were very young all three of us loved to make things. I think that was the way kids entertained themselves in those days. Our mother sat us down with old clothes and needles and thread and we made our dolls clothes.
My creativity grew from there and I found myself in high school making all of my own clothes. I did get a lot of attention with my matching outfits including hats. Since I was shy maybe that was my way of creating my own world and at the same time getting attention.
I finally did get tired of making clothes and went into quilting. The first year I quilted I made every family member quilts, quilts and more quilts.
You can only make so many quilts and so many bags before you have no space left. What is a very nutty creative person going to do about this?? Well you are going to open an ETSY shop and sell some of this stuff, right?? http://fabricartist21.etsy.com/
My neighbor asked me to make her a T-Shirt Quilt and I have been doing that for over a year now. I take special orders through my Etsy shop. I have become very busy with this business and will continue to create t-shirt quilts as long as their are customers that want them.
