What do you end up doing with all the race shirts you get?

Are they taking up your effin closet and you don’t even wear them?!

I was having this problem so I decided to take action and do something about it!

Here is my Race Quilt – Throw – Blanket whatever you’d like to call it!

Race Shirt Blanket

I only left out maybe 5/6 race shirts… I either forgot about them or wanted to “keep” them a bit longer 🙂

First of all… you need a sewing machine and some material.

I am NO expert. See… but I did it anyways, well kinda, my sister helped A LOT!

We decided that I wanted all the squares different sizes and we would figure out how to put them all together later…

I DO NOT recommend that. HAHAHAA

We made it work but it took a lot of brain power and the blanket is not very “straight.”

The best thing about this throw is that I got to spend hours with my sister making it.

I have the most amazing family and I am so grateful for them!!

What do you do with your old race t-shirts?

Have I inspired you to do something with them now? Get on it, there are still a couple more days until Christmas… this would be a perfect gift!
