Rectangle wrangle is finished. I brought it out of the ufo closet in May 2023. I made progress through out the year. I started assembly in July. It was a top in August. I love how it looks and feels. Shirt fabrics are very forgiving, and, so fun to use. Only a few of hubby's old shirts are in this one. The rest are recycled form thrift stores. I see more light than I was expecting while I was making this. I guess that is the magic of using shirt fabrics.

Rectangle wrangle is a Bonnie hunter quilt from her book scraps and shirttails 2. There are 4726 pieces in this quilt, and they all needed matching seams haha
This quilt is beautiful! You've done a great job, matching all those seams is challenging. It definitely has a masculine vibe. Happy stitching!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a gorgeous scrappy finish! That was a lot of seam matching!!
ReplyDeleteThat’s a stunner! Wow!
ReplyDeleteYou did a wonderful job on this quilt. The more I see quilts made with shirts, but more I need to be on the lookout for used shirts to make my own quilt. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.
