A layout with only shirts. Quilted with a large meander pattern with clear thread. This was done hand-guided to avoid stitching over the faces on the photos.
I was asked about the clear thread, is it the stiff, scatchy nylon kind? No, it's a very fine, clear polyester, made by Superior Threads, called Monopoly. Soft and pliable, but strong. It's a great choice for t-shirt quilts, or any other quilt where there is a big variance in fabric colors- very dark and very light, it disappears and doesn't distract from the fabrics.
