T-Shirt Quilt
<p>Hello, everybody!<br>Do you know that feeling when you have to part with your favourite pieces of clothing, because they are already threadbare and you can't wear them anymore?<br>Well! Do not rush just to throw away your old T-shirts - today you will learn how to use them for making a great quilt, which will serve you for a looooong time:)</p>
<p><br>So, we need:<br>-old T-shirts (about 5-7)<br>-scissors;<br>-a sewing machine;<br>-thread;<br>-a ruler (or sewing centimeter);<br>-a piece of paper or cardboard;<br>-an iron;<br>-some batting filler (the size should be equal to the size of the quilt);<br>-pins;<br>-3 colored pieces of fabric</p>
<p><br>Now, let's start:<br>1. First you need to cut a square template 20x20 cm (the size of the pattern can be changed, accordind to your needs and wish).<br>2. With the help of the template, cut out your T-shirts into squares (it would be better to wash and iron them before).<br>3.Then sew a strip of colored fabric with each square (e.g., a red strip (25 * 5 cm), a yellow one (20 * 5 cm), a blue one(30 * 5 cm), a green one(25 * 5 cm). In this way you need to sew down all the squares. <br>4. Then sew the lining together with the batting.<br>5. At the end you need to stitch your quilt over the entire surface of it's front side, (you can do it chaotically).</p>
<p><br>Done! Try this easy and fast way to give your old but beloved pieces of clothing a second life, and they will continue to make you happy for a long, long time!</p><p>Thanks for the photos to <a href="http://pannus.ru/author/admin2">http://pannus.ru/author/admin2</a></p>
