My Mom told me about this book and suggested to me to start collecting shirt for the fabric. So for the last few years I have been collecting all of my husband's and kid's shirts and I have about 2 trash bags full of old dress shirts. Remember the bigger the shirt the more fabric you will get so look for the 2x or 3x shirts.
Book Found on : http://www.quiltville.com/
When I was at my favorite thrift store's 1/2 off Saturday sale I picked up 16 more shirt. They are all Light blue, green, yellow, and tan. The fabric I got out of the shirts was about 12 yards of fabric and was about $1.60 a yard. What a good deal!!!! I will never buy quilt fabric ever again. It also is a good feeling that I am reusing something that has a already been used!!!
