Happy Weird Weather in New England Let’s start clearing out some piles of t-shirts.   T-SHIRT QUILTS ARE THE ANSWER to that clutter pile!   It takes at least 30 shirts to make a good size quilt…. If you have a bigger pile than that…. Give me whatever you have for shirts… I have can make Throw size, Twin size, Double, Queen… even reversable!

Throw size: 12 to 20 shirts… $100… less than a week.
Twin size: 30 to 42 or more shirts… $150… about a week.
Double:  40 to 56 shirts… $175……. a little more than a week.
Queen: lot’s o’ shirts…. $215………  about two weeks.

Come on, dig out your favorite shirts…   I can meet you any where. I can meet you at a race if you’d like….  I can meet you some where along the road side.   When you’ve collected your favorites, give me a call (or an e-mail). Love to hear from you Keep moving forward.
Sincerely; Kate Naples
