Concert T-Shirt Memory Quilt ! 👨🏻 (AND I give it to him On Camera ) 👨🏻

Greetings All! In this video I make a T-Shirt quilt for my friend slash coworker Lukas out of his concert Tshirts. And he appears in the video to receive the quilt !

[@davescraftroom]

Thank you all and I'm glad you like this quilt ! A few people are commenting that it was a very nice gift... I guess I didn't mention this in the video but just to clarify, he did pay me for my work 😜👨🏻

[@jeannette7243]

Even better!

[@Angie-gk8bp]

Nothing wrong with that!! 🙂

[@smchalk3535]

Sweetness all around❤❤❤❤

[@lucillebarnes7327]

You're a genius, ❤!

[@ritarenee210]

I made a basic t-shirt quilt (like 16 blocks of the same size) and this video gives me some inspiration and confidence to dive in and get a little more creative! What a sweet and fun project!

[@MaidenBklyn]

ah that was an awesome reveal. The quilt is badass.

[@ccc-pj9xg]

Awesome, Dave!

[@sylviamayo379]

JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNEL and can't stop catching up with all of your Quilts also love the music as well. I love your channel because you have your own style. I Love IT. Keep up the new designs. I also Quilt as well.😇🥰🥰

[@CopycatQuilter]

You have the luckiest friends and family! 😂

[@aktarango]

I enjoyed that live reveal 😊👍

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

I certainly did not recognize most of the bands/musicians. But I really liked the quilt. Most people tell you to make all the blocks the same size. I like your method much better. I have a pile of concert Tshirts waiting for me to transform. Thanks so much for sharing your creative process with all of us.

Awesome quilt! You're so creative👏

[@partyfiesta1557]

You’re an amazing friend

[@TheSewingChannel]

How stinkin' sweet was that ending❣I love the quilt but hearing the reaction was priceless❣Homerun Dave🤩

[@davescraftroom]

Thank you Tracy! PS I can't wait to Davetize a scrapberry gingham 😜👨🏻

[@stamperammagash6945]

Another amazing Quilt. Great job, great inspiration. Thank you

[@maryrobertson5426]

Dave, you never cease to amaze me. You are a true artist in the making. A great quilt!~

[@catherinemerwin2678]

It's so freeing to watch you create your quilts - rules? What rules? Make it work by adding or subtracting. Those are such great ways to bring a quilt to life. Thanks once again, Dave.

[@lucy7b]

❤❤❤

[@Siennaflower]

That turned out so awesome!! ❤

[@emmonstrex65]

Awesome quilt! 🤩

[@Amritadivya54]

I agree with Cynthia FLick's comment. I really like the fact that the blocks and different sizes and you show no fear of cutting them down to no extra fabric around the image. People on you tube channels talk about using all kinds of stabilizers that are super expensive to ensure that a tee shirt quilt goes together ok and here you are using the most basic interfacing available and you make it work. I so admire you and your quilts!! Thank you for sharing your process with everyone!💓

[@booomanchu]

Lucas's reaction was priceless! Great job Dave!

[@rebyj]

Love the quilt. I learned a lot too! I have made one t shirt quilt of yard sale disney t shirts. Moderately successful but the next one will be better now. It's so great that this is a meaningful one to Lucas. Great job.

[@Angie-gk8bp]

That was so sweet of you to get that T-Shirt quilt done for him. You’re also very creative; you’re awesome!! 🎉😸

[@rebeccatrombley6579]

I just love that quilt behind you. That was great video, as well. I really like the way you teach and share your creative process!

[@rebeccatrombley6579]

That was such a great gift for your friend! Beautiful work:)

[@6gorks]

I love your friends reaction! 14 years was a long time to wait! Worth the wait😁

[@louiseah7662]

I love this method!! Looks so much cooler than when they are all the same size.

[@michele.the.quilter6174]

That came out really well. Love it!

[@photoladyluck123]

You did a FABULOUS job!! I make a lot of tshirt quilts for others. What I would give for a design wall!! I just dont have room where I live. I use a flannel backed tablecloth in my living room floor. Maybe one of these days!! Again, GREAT job!!

[@Craftythrifter]

Ditto here. I don’t have a wall I can use so I crawl around on the floor, getting more difficult to do. 😅

[@edieballard-qc3tn]

What an incredible job!!!! I live in Oklahoma & we have a restaurant in the state that produces unique tshirts & I’ve been collecting tshirts for a quilt & Christmas tshirts from the same place to make a Christmas quilt. Seeing your finished quilt really makes me want to work on mine!!!!

[@molamola7093]

I love the way you put this together. It looks like the walls of old rock clubs with the posters all stuck all over each h other, so cool.

[@joanjan9139]

Graet work. ! Love your quilts

[@annat174]

Fantastic quilt. Love how you show your thought process getting all the differing sizes together. You are so generous with your time and effort making great quilts for your friends.

[@cyn4rest]

Great quilt. The balance of shape, color, and value you achieved is fabulous. Love it! Lucky Lucas. BTW… Brenda of Conquering Mt Scrapmore sent me. 😊

[@shaneencalade4988]

The devil is in the details..... I love the idea of going in with the date and other little things that aren't taking away and could almost be missed but collectively add such impact. Thats the sign of a true artist when designing. So cool.

[@omisfavorites1054]

Your creative process is absolutely fascinating - a joy to watch! Great quilt! Great video! Loved seeing your friend’s reaction.

[@helend222]

One of your best. Quilts are a caring gift. Hours of labour.

[@joannbanks5556]

I genuinely love it so much too! Lucky Lucas. I would love a Dave original

[@patriciabryant6574]

Another good one Dave.

[@lucilaflores4912]

Amazing, beautiful quilt!

[@yvettehendrickson3423]

Omg, your friend is adorable. Great quilt, so awesome

[@Craftythrifter]

That turned out really great! Much less stress/work than graph paper and it works out cuz you’re the boss of the quilt! The live reveal was fun, say yes to round 2, can’t wait to see it!❤

[@galewhiteman2047]

You are a good friend. That was a great tee shirt quilt!

[@delwyngraham4033]

The interfacing I used was terrible kept coming off but I noticed you put on first then cut your block shapes, will try that next time thanks again Dave

[@elainebukowsky9187]

Wonderful quilt! I love your design process. I’m just starting my 3rd t-shirt quilt, but my first out of polyester sports jerseys. I was a bit overwhelmed by the volume of shirts, but you’ve given me some great ideas on how to incorporate the essential parts.

[@joannbanks5556]

What a great collection of tshirts

[@chrislittebrant5235]

Great Job, Dave❣️ Congratulations Locus!!! 👍 Chris

[@colescornerandcreations3870]

Another awesome quilt by Dave! 🎉

[@joannbanks5556]

I am way too square to know most of those musicians but the art work is fantastic

[@davescraftroom]

I didn't know most of them either, Lukas is way cooler than me 🤪😉😂😂👨🏻

[@IwannaBinUsk2]

Awesome job!!

[@cherylcurlee3279]

Love it!! I sew need to make one of these. On the list.

[@tarasaberon8269]

Epic!

[@BEVERLYRANDOLPH-lx4qu]

Amazing as always, Dave!

[@tonikreicbergs4822]

Just awesome quilt. I have made four t-shirt quilts. Three quilts for my grandkids and they took them to college. And, I made one for my husband. Looking forward to make more. You are so talented and fun❤️

[@TheGuyWhoSews]

I love making T-Shirt quilts but never made a mosiac one like this. The biggest game changer for me was getting and using a steam/heat press rather than an iron to put on the fusible interfacing. Its so much faster. The completed quilt looks fantastic Dave. Nicely done.

[@janemcallister1236]

Love this quilt and am trying to make one w my son’s old T-Shirts. What’s the finished size of this one?

[@marymannion4445]

French fuse is the perfect interfacing to use on a t shirt quilt. Just iron it on in the opposite direction of the stretch.

[@dorism7920]

Hello Dave, your videos make me happy, they are very inspiring! Thank you! Nice greetings from Dornbirn -( a smal city in Vorarlberg- Austria)

[@davescraftroom]

Wilkommen zu Daves Craft Zimmer 😆😜👨🏻

[@missbubu1611]

Fun!

[@sarasilvestro7892]

So cool! Would you do a video on your applique process? Can you also use polyester jerseys? Thx!!!!

[@Cole-Nicole]

❤

[@gloriaturley324]

Amazing

[@ayla1]

love this!! what interfacing do you use? i’ve been wanting to make a tshirt quilt too and want to use interfacing now since it’ll be my first quilt 😅 make things a little easier haha

[@susannevorhauer3955]

Dave, the quilt is super! My question is: What sizw/type of needle do you use to sew through the tee shirt decals? I have always been told not to try to stitch through them. When I tried, I broke needles and skipped stitches. How are you able to do this? Love your videos and projects. Groups, neighborhoods, and sections is so practical!

[@davescraftroom]

I'll have to get back to you because I'm away from my sewing machine rn to check... my mom always taught me to use a ballpoint needle on tshirt jersey although tbh I forget whether I have one in now or had one in when I made this quilt 😅

[@hildiborkowski4436]

Love it!!! Did you put batting in between the backing and the front?

[@davescraftroom]

yes 👨🏻

[@hildiborkowski4436]

@@davescraftroomI was just wondering, because I am making one now and I think it needs batting. Thanks for posting! This quilt is beautiful ❤
