Happy Cabbage

I did it!  The t-shirt quilt is complete, though not without some blood and tears.  Well, maybe not tears, but blood was shed from the prick of many straight pins. 

Once we got the quilt top, batting, and fleece sewn together we flipped it back through like a pillow case.

Next step was to sew around the edges in order to close the hole we used for flipping.

We ended up using the yarn method to keep the front and back pieces together by tying yarn in the corners of the t-shirt blocks.  It too was a long and tedious process, but with the help of my mother we prevailed.

It may be about eight years after graduation, but it’s just in time for cold weather!
