T-shirt Masterpiece

After 5 years of dreaming

35 plus t-shirts-

free and bought for

clean and dirty

all with memories

of people, places, times-

and 5 pairs of torn jeans

(some even with paint still attached)

it's done

After almost no measurements involved

and lots of redefining what it means to be square

and some very sloppy hems

it's done

After countless episodes of Psych

and Mythbusters

and even Twin Peaks

multicolored spools of thread

and the left-over spools from other things

it's done

After sewing machine trouble

and confusion and woe

and the thump and the bump

of the hand-me-down Viking 5710

it's done

 

After 100 square inches 

(that's larger than king size)

of cutting

and sewing

and ripping

and tearing

and sewing again

making good use of color

and logo to spare

my t-shirt and jean quilt

is finally done!

(the picture shows both top (with logos) and bottom (solid colors))

it's done!
