turn an old concert tee into a quilted wall hanging

I find the men in my life hard to craft for, so when I found an awesome old Kurt Cobain shirt at the thrift store, I knew I had to do something with it for my brother-in-law.

Instructions


  1. 1

    Choose a t-shirt with a great front you want to turn into a wall hanging.

    Spread the shirt out until it's nice and smooth.

  2. 2

    Using a rotary ruler and cutter if you have one, cut out the image on the front of the tee, leaving at least 1" around the image.

    If you don't have a rotary cutter, use chalk and a regular ruler to draw around the image, leaving 1". Cut along the chalk with scissors.

  3. 3

    Cut 1 1/2" strips of fabric for the border.

    Sew to the top, bottom and sides, making sure to not stretch the t-shirt fabric.

    If you hand stitch, make sure to use tight-even stitches.

  4. 4

    Layer your quilt top, batting and back fabric.

    Stitch around the image and around the inside of the border.

  5. Step 5 5

    Add binding or finish off the edges with a serger or using another method of your choice.

  6. 6

    Stitch plastic rings to the top corners of the wall hanging.

  7. Step 7 7

    Add a label if desired.
