This is a chef themed quilt which I stitched for someone! The lady
brought me 4 chef tops and 1 pair of pants and wanted a quilt made from
it! With the help of my imagination,
cooking embroidery designs and chef themed fabric, I was able to
come up with this as the result. It turned out really neat and they
loved it!! |

The center block is the
neat knot buttons
down the front of the chef top. She also had her name monogrammed
above two pockets which is another block.
The white and black
small checked fabric in various blocks is from her pants. Some were
pieced; I couldn't get a 18" block out of a pair on pants!! |
|

A sleeve on one top had a logo, so I appliquéd the logo in a circle onto
more checkered pant fabric. The block above it is a
chef print fabric which is
appliquéd onto black fabric. The chili pepper fabric was a neat border
for
'hot & spicy' embroidery designs. It created more interest to the
quilt and blended with the theme colors of red, black & white. |

To fill in more blocks, I stitched some very
large, detailed chef designs. Four blocks are white with black
lettering. Each one has a catchy menu title and the shape of the letters
match the title. This one says "Catch of the Day", and is in the shape
of a fish hook!

This is a twin size t-shirt quilt made for someone with various logos
and lettering on t-shirts. I fused
So Sheer interfacing to the back of
the t-shirt fabric to add stability, cut the shirt down so only the log
remained, added borders as needed and stitched the blocks together. I
made two quilts this size with different t-shirts. |

The third t-shirt quilt is a large king size. The school colors are
gold, black and purple, so I was able to enlarge the t-shirt blocks with
these fabric colors. Most of the t-shirts pictured volleyball,
cheerleading and other sports in which she was involved. All the quilts
on this page were made for the same person! She had several garbage bags
filled with clothes which she brought to me!! |
