Bat Goddess Summer 2014 Exercise the right to declutter! (340* d) RE: Summer 2014 Exercise the right to declutter! 09 Jul 14


Sort of winging it on the T-shirt quilt. Mine will be mostly festival, beer, Press Room, etc. shirts with the Fishtraks (recording studio) shirt in the middle -- Tom and I each got one at the party the night we met there.

My friend Carol is doing all the sewing, but I'm doing the cutting out (I'm using a plexiglass square that I had cut to size -- 14" square -- so I can see the design underneath; I draw around it with black or white marker then cut out the shirt), cutting of the fusable webbing, ironing that on, layout, etc.

She bought a pattern mostly for some hints as to sewing it -- she's using mine sort of as a practice one before doing one for herself.

We're using Pellon fusable interfacing on the back of the t-shirt material to stabilize it. I brought that part of the project (ironing the Pellon to the squares) home to work on, perhaps, while Dennis is working on the bathroom. Carol is picking up more Pellon before next Tuesday when we'll again be working together.

She has the space to lay it out, which I don't at home. But I counted squares by color and may be able to do a rough layout on paper before I actually lay it out.
