THE SUNDAY BEST QUILT — PDF Sewing Pattern
Six button-down shirts become one quilt you'll keep. Gingham, stripes and checks set in clean columns against white — a modern layout that lets the fabrics you already love do the talking.
FINISHED SIZE
42" x 48" (107 x 122 cm) — throw / lap
BEFORE YOU CUT — PLEASE READ
Wash and press every shirt first. Most have been laundered for years and will have shrunk unevenly.
Set aside the worn areas — collars, elbows and underarms are thinner than they look, and they fail after quilting.
Very lightweight shirtings hold their shape better with a light fusible interfacing before cutting.
And this one matters most: start with a shirt that isn't precious. Cut one block, sew it, measure it. Only then cut the shirts you can't replace.

SKILL LEVEL
Intermediate — though not for the reason you'd expect. The piecing is straight seams and simple columns; a confident beginner could sew it. What takes care is the preparation: taking the shirts apart, working with fabrics of different weights, and cutting cloth you can't buy more of.
