Race Car Graduation Quilt

Some of my favorite quilts to make are quilts that will be gifted as a surprise.  This giant, queen sized, quilt was just given as a college graduation present.  It has approximately 50  (YES, 50!) t-shirts representing a ton of activities their son participated in since childhood.  My client was hoping for the main colors to be red, white, and blue.  Since so many of the shirts were white, I added red sashing, and blue binding.  It's quilted with a flame pattern to represent his current passion, race car driving.  I'm really pleased with the manly look we accomplished on this.  

Thanks to the family for sharing this awesome photo of the big reveal.
