Weekend OOTD + T-Shirt Quilt
Last weekend, I finally used my Louis Vuitton Alma BB in Black Epi as mentioned here and I absolutely love it. It's the perfect size to hold my bag essentials (as mentioned here).
Over the years, I've collected a plethora of T-shirts from long ago thanks to summer school, team sports, and school pride that have been taking up a good chunk of my closet space. I know I'll never wear those shirts again but can't bear the thought of throwing them away. I also know that my children wouldn't want to wear my hand-me-down tees so I've decided to make them into a nice and comfy T-shirt quilt since the shirts themselves are quite comfy.
After researching a bit online, it really does seem pretty straightforward - you just need to cut out a square of each T-shirt to then stitch together with backing and batting in between the layers. I've had this project tucked away for a long time now and hope I can finally get to it sometime this year (after my priority of scanning my dozens of family albums into my computer so we have digital files of precious memories). I will definitely share the results whenever I finally finish this project.
