Hi there! I'm (hopefully) moving out of my parents' house this year and would like to make room in my overflowing T-shirt drawer. Throwing them all away feels like a betrayal of these shirts I loved, so I want to make a T-shirt quilt out of them. Thing is, I've never made any kind of quilt at all, so I don't have that base of experience. Do you have any advice specifically for T-shirt quilts that would differ from regular quilting advice?

Hey! T-shirt quilts are on my list of things I'd like to make, but to be honest I have no idea how to make them. Every guide I've seen says to use interfacing to make the shirts sturdier, but I can't figure out of it's absolutely 100% necessary, or if most quilters just don't like sewing knits? I don't like using interfacing so I have not tried to make one yet Hopefully someone who reads this will have more specific advice

#ask away! #buttercupyarnart #t shirt quilt #I have a bag of t-shirts in the back of my closet specifically for a t-shirt quilt #I have hoarded them from sports teams and school events and theater shows my siblings and I have been in #because I know my mom would love it as a quilt #but I dislike using interfacing #so it sits. a big bag of shirts wedged in the corner of the closet #taking up more than its fair share of floorspace lol

60, 61, 62, and 63!!! I can’t believe I finished the quilting this summer, I thought it would take so much longer. Thanks for sticking with me though this post series, it was very motivating to post a photo of every square as I finished it. I’m headed back to home base on Wednesday so I’ll try to attach the binding this weekend so I can get to hand-sewing the rest of it next rotation (which is my surgery rotation so idk how much time I’ll have haha but we’ll see!) updates to follow….

it makes me sad how often textile arts are ignored as actual art forms, and are relegated to the disregarded realm of 'old lady hobbies'. there is so much skill involved, such a broad diversity of forms, but so many people straight up do not think of things like crochet or quilting as art.

#i mean apprenticing with a textile artist as a teen definitely changed how i view quilts and tapestries #before then i had never really realized what was possible or what was involved in creating these things #but i think everyone should at least be taught how to sew and either knit or crochet as a child. #that should just be part of standard school curriculum. #textile art should be taught as a unit in art classes right alongside oil painting - the history of goes back even farther and is so #culturally important to literally every culture in the world and yet it is almost never considered academically the way paintings are.

regular people who sew are always aghast at quilters seam allowances. you’re going to take our 1/8 at best seams and you’re going to thank us

#being predominantly a quilter doing regular sewing is like. god look at all this fabric theyre wasting in the seams #i used to hand piece quilt blocks at school last year and people were always like GOD YOUR SEAMS…..

Given the tags on the post I reblogged a little bit ago, I feel obligated to say that I have never been normal, thanks, and I don’t intend to start now <3

#yes I made four and a half quilts in 2020 #yes I have an ongoing fic series that has been actively posting for nearly a year and is way way way too long #yes I am twenty years old and in grad school #and yes I should be asleep right now #but that’s just the way life rolls sometimes

My senior show is also so stupid lol like I am never again in my life gonna put my artwork in a gallery setting that's just not something I enjoy at ALL or aspire to do but I have to do this whole big terribly stressful thing in order to graduate and it's SO DUMB

#💭 #i may be a studio art major but like. not... actually LOL #like i am but uh. i'm just like. whatever idc... #i don't necessarily regret going to college i wouldn't have met some important friends otherwise #including my bf lol he didn't go to my school but he was a friend from high school of a friend i made at school #and a lot of the actual things i've gotten to try in studio classes have been fun and cool opportunities #like quilting and ceramics and oil painting etc... #and some stuff i learn in classes like art history and other stuff can be really interesting to learn #but the like... expectations side of it... #not everyone is gonna go above and beyond in class and also like #go on to grad school and eventually make a living off of like solely being a gallery artist or whatever else #i'm gonna like. idk hopefully get some diagnoses soon and mayyyybe get some government benefits that eventually and like #work a calm part time simple not-physically-exhausting job and do commissions or shop stuff or sell crafts etc on the side #ideally speaking etc but. i just wanna have a calm warm cozy healthy life with my bf and family and friends that's all i care about #the world of art school is not really for me lol just bc art is the main thing i do with my time doesn't mean like. #thats the kind of path i'm gonna go down... #i always feel like no one in those settings thinks my main art i make is professional or original or my full capability anyway lol #cuz it's fanart or cartoony or whatever #i make lots of other art too and can do all kinds of styles but i shouldn't have to do it to like. prove myself #no one should #sorry so much rambling lol #i'm just frustrated and stressed

I do not know if I can sate their hunger.

Progress on my big sword quilt project, each of my designs have been heavily inspired by a historical or classical fantasy reference. The sword on the left side is based on a combination of True Renaissance Two-Handers, or Zweihänder. The middle sword is loosely inspired by a Claymore reference. The sword on the right is inspired by Anduril of Lord of the Rings. Today I’m working on a rapier loosely inspired by Needle of A Song of Ice and Fire.

After I’ve gotten the basics of all my planned swords down I plan to go back through the designs, edit, and add detail. Then I’ll break them down into patterns and work on the quilt layout.

I am using swords as a motif for this quilt because the recipient loves them and owns quite a few replicas. I’ve stared at swords for hours now and really come to appreciate how beautiful they can be, their careful proportioning, the diversity of their designs and functions. The process of making this project has already given me a greater appreciation of my friend’s interest, and my friend. And a great excuse to listen to The Return of the King audiobook.
