What do you do with old tee shirts? You usually just give them away to charity or use them as rags. But what do you do with tee shirts that you love so much, you cannot imagine parting with them? You can make them into cushion covers or cut them up and fashion a tee quilt out of them. That way they will always be close to you and have turned functional, too.

What you can do with your tee shirts will depend on the amount of blocks that you can cut out of them. You can start with a small framed piece, advance into a table runner or aim for a bed cover. Sort out your shirts first so that colors complement each other. Download a pattern from the internet and start cutting away. You can either hand sew or machine sew the pieces. The result will be heartwarming.
