Turn a stack of favorite shirts into a keepsake with How to Make a Too Cool Style T-shirt Quilt by Andrea T. Funk and Milie H. Funk. This step-by-step guide teaches a puzzle-style layout that uses blocks of different sizes and shapes, so you can keep more of each graphic instead of forcing every shirt into the same size block.

The Too Cool method uses no iron-on backing and no cotton sashing, which gives you a softer, more flexible quilt and saves time and material costs. The spiral binding lets the book lie flat while you work.
