    DIY Tshirt Quilt

     


    What a great way to preserve memories.  

    Since my husband passed away, I have been going through his clothes and had already put tshirts aside that I wanted to do something with.  This is perfect and actually what I had in mind.  I have found that when you lose someone close, you want to have little things that bring special memories.

    Also,  I have saved old concert tshirts from back in the day that would be awesome to have a quilt of concert memories.
