What an incredible journey this has been! When I embarked on this project, I had no idea it would unfold into such an exhilarating adventure. Along the way, I've unraveled countless stitches, recalibrated my approach multiple times, and invested countless hours in cutting, sewing, and ironing. But it was absolutely worthwhile!❤️
Fortunately, I had some invaluable assistance along the way ❤️ which adds an extra layer of significance to this blanket.
I genuinely hope you appreciate the result! Also, please don't hesitate to share any suggestions or tips for alternative approaches; who knows, perhaps I'll make another in the future!

Love the quilt! We are sorting my dear old Dads home and contents after his death in January. I was not looking forward to making decisions on his clothes , but your quilt has encouraged me to do a little quilt of his shirts ,as a memory that is fresh , modern and new. He was a tidy , humble , kind man and he loved my quilt making. Thanks for the inspiration and insight.

I did this with my dadas shirts. I used them ALL and every part of them. I used the pockets as the size of the patches. I used the collars, pinning the ends together and used them as the trim around the edges. And i used the long part where the buttons are ( dont know the name of this piece) as the trim on the longer ends. I was a labor of love but I absolutely love it! Good luck ❤

Your upcycled quilt is really delightful - you will treasure for many yrs. I have my first quilts and stilll sleep under them every night -some are over 30 yrs old. They traveled all over north America for many yrs in a camper van. My hubby playing his accordion and me patching the patchwork quilts - so many wonderful memories sewn into them - by lakes, and deserts, mountains and oceans. The lovely quilts will do the same of you. Bravo!

What a lovely reminder to embrace our imperfections. I think your quilt is beautiful and I loved watching. It will always comfort you with memories of the journey of making it. My Dad died in 2008 and I still have a box of his favorite shirts in my closet that I could not give away. Now because of your video I know exactly what to do with them. 🧡 Debbie from El Cajon, California USA 🇺🇸

The little imperfections tell a story, thrifting used or preloved fabric/material means the previous owner has done all the work - eg washing it, wearing it in, the colours no longer run etc. You are giving these items another life where they can be loved and cherished once again.

I am delighted to have just discovered you thru the algorithm. Your quilt reminds me of one I made about 20 years ago. I made it out of thrifted Christmas/winter flannel pajama pants and threw in a pair of flannel leopard print pj’s to spice the quilt up a bit. It now belongs to one of my daughters. These handmade quilts make me feel so cozy and truly like I’m being hugged by the maker, like the quilt made for me by my grandmother when I was a little girl. I still have that one and it’s now well over 50 years old, I still use it when I need a little TLC. 🥰

I resell used clothes on ebay, and while women's clothes sell well, men shirts are poor sellers. While I am less than handy, and sewing is not my thing at all, I still was searching on how to upcycle mens flannels, and here you are, with a great project and amazing result. Thank you for sharing. Will be my summer project, hopefully I will sell it, too.

Thank you for addressing this! I love creating out of thrifted things too. It is common that our thrift stores have bins of clothing for $1 an item and you can find some great things there. I actually got 2 pieces yesterday and was unpicking them while watching your video!!!!!! One is a cotton embroidered dress with yards and yards of thick trim. The other (in similar dark peach tones) is a large men’s striped shirt. This will be for a quilt. A tip I came across was to off-set the squares as then you don’t have the bulk in the joins and also don’t have to worry about matching the intersection join!!!

@@stevezytveld6585 you are too kind! 🥰 the vintage sewing channel sounds very interesting! I started by watching a lot of videos on how to make a youtube channel, VidIQ has hundred of videos about this. The start It's overwhelming, because there are so many ways of building a channel, and you do a lot of work and get only a few views. But if your motivation is making the projects instead of getting those views you will stay motivated. Think about it as if you where doing videos for your family to follow your projects. I always recommend to my friends to make a youtube channel as a way of self-discover and focusing on their interests haha I hope this helped! Let me know if you start your channel :) I also recommend you follow @staceyleecreative, her videos look very neat and are easy to follow (as inspiration for your channel)

The tie need to be placed 3 to 4 inches away from the next one. Otherwise the batting will eventually bunch up. But saying this we look at quilts to last forever, so they have all these rules but sometimes things are for the moment. They are for today and aren't made to last a hundred years. Learn the skills, enjoy the process and give yourself grace not to be perfect. I was a sewing teacher for many years. I could pick this all apart but I truly love it and her process. It is the same mental process I and my students use. Your going to make mistakes and you should, you are learning. No one learns anything by being perfect. This is the process of how we learn as humans. This is a beginner quilt made with love and kindness. I have now started watercolors. I told my mom I was so excited because I didn't have to be perfect....I could just enjoy the process. Very nice video.. thank you

Wait, so did you not actually quilt it?? That's gonna Bevan issue with use and washing. The batting will pull apart account up. If you don't want the quilting lines to show, do what's called "stitch in the ditch" which is where you too stitch directly on the seams. You can do straight lines horizontally and vertically right where the squares are stitched together. It's not close enough, ideally, to keep it together, but is certainly better than leaving it as is. It looks really cute, I just worry it will not last you long as it is now.

@estelsogo 4 ай бұрын

Hello, thank you for your tips 🥰I actually tried to stitch it directly on the seams but I need more practice to stitch stright. Then I tried other techniques and undo it. At the end I didn't add any batting, it's only the patchwork top attached to the blanket fabric, because the blanket fabric was thick and warm enough, then I stiched the margins to give it more structure. It was a project were I have tried almost all the options 😁 In the next project I did the cross quilting for rag quilting pillows, as I was eager to actually quilt. This would be a Patchwork Blanket. Big hug! 🐻

Hi! It would be about 15-20€ for 10 shirts, some were 1€, some 2€. They were good quality and I like to re-use instead of buying new as much as I can, so the environtment cost is low. On the other side, it takes more time to get that much fabric! Big hug 🐻
