t-shirt quilts book review

T-Shirt Quilts Made EasyT-Shirt Quilts Made Easy by Martha DeLeonardis
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

I've been looking for a comprehensive book on t-shirt quilts. I've made many quilts but never one from t-shirts and was looking for tips about using jersey knit fabric and interfacing. This book left a lot to be desired. It was really unhelpful because the author assumes we know a lot more about cutting, design, and construction and doesn't go into a lot of detail or give much description (which includes pictures-there are hardly any). I like studying books and patterns rather than YouTube videos, but honestly, those videos were way more helpful. I do like that the author teaches how to incorporate different fabrics to make a "Cinderella" t-shirt quilt rather than just a bunch of squares sewn together.
