I knew that I wanted to have a quilt made and earlier this year had decided on the company I wanted to use, since no one in my family is a quilter, and had ordered some samples of their fabric for the binding and backing. In September I received an email that they were having a sale, so I went ahead and got everything together and shipped off my shirts. This was supposed to be my big Christmas present, but Joel's kind of letting that slide :-) Here she is:
Now you Meredith girls know that this is a VERY small representation of a proper shirt collection. I picked out 4 of my favorite shirts from each year because some were just plain ugly, bless their hearts (though I did include the sadly tragic Ring Dinner shirt, just because I couldn't leave it out). So I still have some shirts to wear and will have this quilt to remember some of my favorite memories!

Wow -- the quilt looks GREAT!!! And I like the idea that you still have some shirts to wear (something I didn't think of). I'm jealous of your quilt now :)
WOW! I LOVE the quilt!!! I have always wanted to do that! You'll have to give me more details about how to go about getting that done. I'm so jealous!!

oops, Jason didn't write that. (;
That looks great! I've been wanting to have that done for a while. Would you mind passing along the info for the company that did it?
Thanks!
