Tshirts quilt - design


Preparing for a tshirts quilt for my daughter who has just finished university.
I measured all prints, Initially I stuck to measures of 3,4,6,9 inches and cut out the blocks templates.
I then played around with the blocks laying them in a pattern.
As I started to et a pattern together I put them together and wrote in the colours, the colours gave me an idea if I had balance.
I had decided to work with 2 inch sash between blocks 
As I moved blocks to their final place I numbered the blocks and added the number to the tshirt. 
If needed I would have a look at a logo to increase or decrease a block to make it fit the pattern.



I decided to have two coloured sash to match to university colours, using the alternative colour around the blocks of the primary colour, in my case maroon and gold, so primary sash colour wa maroon and then around blocks that were maroon I would use gold sash.
