How many things can you make from a recycled cotton shirt?

I know that I have not shared much recently - life has been hectic and most quilting has been work related making sample blocks and quilts for classes.

However this is a little treat I have been meaning to share for a while. All the items in the following photos were made by Maureen, a creative and prolific quilter who attends my Tuesday class and does not have a blog of her own so it is my duty to share her work with you all.

She started with a red white and blue men's shirt that she bought at the International Quilt Day Event.

She added some plain white and blue star fabric and made a quilt.

 Here is a close up.

 Then she made a bag - here is one side, note the button holes in the handle!

 This is the other side - the label from the shirt has made the flag on the yacht!

 Then she made a cushion.

 A couple of pincushions made from the scraps!

 And finally this cute little fella!

 Look at his coat with tails made from the collar tips!

Awesome work Maureen!
