Pin basted and more t-shirts

My sister was going to call me around 4:30 so I needed to start getting my steps in as soon as I got home from work. She called at 4:40 and we hung up at 6 and yes I was walking the whole time except to scold the neighbor's dog that was running loose. So after my 6 miles for the day I got to work in the studio.

The back pressed and taped down with 3M tape for hard to stick surfaces. This green tape works so much better than the blue tape. Don't confuse it with Frog tape - that is something different. The only place I have been able to find the 3M green tape is at Sherwin Williams. The big box home stores around here don't carry it.

Pin basted

I will be quilting this with Superior Threads King Tut in white linen. Its the perfect color to use on the Kona Snow.

Binding cut

I received more t-shirts for my nephew's quilt yesterday.

The cool dad t-shirt, which my nephew wore to high school LOL! is interfaced and ready for me to figure out how I will work it into that last row for his t-shirt quilt.
