Turn treasured tees into something brand-new-a T-shirt quilt! Capture the memories of a special time, starting with a quick pillow project or a baby quilt made from onesies, and work your way up to bed quilts in multiple sizes.

You'll practice your skills with 8 projects ranging from simple squares to pieced stars and triangles, plus easy machine-appliqued motifs. With beginner-friendly designs and truly unique layouts to entice experienced quilters, this essential guide to T-shirt quilts covers all the bases.
