Make a lap quilt from men’s shirts

Minimal fabric commitment, yup. Pam of Threading My Way shares on her blog how she made this lap quilt from worn men’s shirts. I’m with her, when you pull batting, binding and backing fabric from your stash, it’s free, making this project a thrifty choice for the experienced quilter. But it’s an especially good one for quilting newbies, since quilting startup costs are steep.

Not only does she take you step-by-step through the process of creating the top, she provides links to tutorials for sandwiching, basting, stitching and binding. Check out the floral binding, brilliant.
