Howdy!
I took a big white shirt, lightweight cheapy,
and sewed scraps to it, overlaid and appliquéd;
added some yo-yos and buttons to it,
and have worn it for the past 8 yrs. to all kinds of quilt shows
and meet-ups. It's one of 2 that I took to Houston;
you saw the one w/ the doilies and leftover blocks
and all those buttons, I think.
This Quilter's Shirt, having a double layer of fabric, is rather warm;
the sleeves are still uncovered white, making the shirt look like
a vest. It's cheap, it's economical, it blends into quilting crowds. g
It's getting a bit frayed, altho' it's not hard to patch the patches. g
So I've started another one.
Can't go wrong, 'cause it's just made up. Cheap works for me!
Thanks for asking.

Sandy,
What's this Quilter's Shirt? I remember you wearing a shirt decorated
with some vintage textiles. Are you doing another of those? Will I see
this in Houston this year? Details, woman, details!!
