Our customers call all the time with questions regarding what to do with their beautiful and often designer fabric scraps. Well, now we have another idea we can through their way. Why stop with dress shirts? Mixing and matching various fabrics and prints adds a uniqueness to custom made quilts that are hard to duplicate. Thanks for the inspiration!

I have a feeling that it’s going to take forever before I finish a quilt. But still, I would love to try finish one. I’m thinking of using my old Cherokee scrubs. And I’m gonna use those with various fabrics and with different textures.

Ooh, I’m way ahead of you! (Although foolishly I have been making mine out of 1 inch hexagons instead of sensibly large squares so it’s taking forever!)

Plus I’ve just realised that I need at least 5 more shirts and I’ll never get them off of dad…
