I have no idea! I had to ask my teenager what sloppy seconds was and I was somewhat upset that she knew the answer. The shirt was white with olive green letters in a drippy looking font. Gross, gross, gross.... The quilt turned out quite nicely but I always wondered if the mom (who paid for the quilt) knew what that term meant.


Back on the subject of nice tshirt quilts, they can be very attractive. I made a wallhanging of MIT and SAE shirts for my brother with the coordinating fabric of a dark purple batik. I also made 2 for the D. The one on her college bed used a medium orange batik and incorporated all her activity shirts from hs. The wallhanging one was a running theme and used all her road race and xc/track invitational shirts. The coordinating fabric is of women running. I am in the design stage of one now that will have the student's crew and swim team activities. She probably will go with a purple batik (school colors) or a wavy fabric that reflects her interest in water sports.
