Shirty Quilts
Here are some photos from my on-going Shirty Quilt project, making quilts almost entirely from recycled cotton shirts. What started with my own clothes, and donations from my father and brother, has grown into an exciting obsession which has me diving into charity shops and rummaging through their rails for interesting colours and textures. Quiltmaking has its origins in thrift and reuse, and there is something uniquely satisfying about making something beautiful and practical from nothing.
