Thank you so much for your quick reply Yep upon further thought and remembering my previous Pinterest fails in the baking department ‍♀️‍♀️maybe a mini rag quilt first would be best before using these tshirts that we’ve saved the entire life of my granddaughter lol. Since broadcloth is 1/2 the price of muslin at my local fabric store I may try that One last question … we live in south central Texas so we really don’t have winter per se, if I used flannel as my foundation piece do you think I could get away with only two layers on the tshirt rag quilt or would it probably be too flimsy or just look weird?

Hi Corene, I might try something smaller scale for a first crazy quilt project, like a table topper or even a potholder, to see if you enjoy that kind of quilting. If you already have basic sewing skills, you can most likely pull it off, though. Either broadcloth or flannel can work for a foundation fabric. The main things I think about are how much the foundation fabric weighs and what color it is, because the edges do show when you clip the squares. The larger the quilt will be, the better it is to use a lighter foundation fabric, so the finished quilt doesn’t weigh a ton. Best of luck on your project! I love to see photos of the finished piece.
