    Default tshirt quilt question

    I am making a tshirt quilt for my niece. What is the best material to use for the back of the tshirts? Also, any other suggestions for making tshirt quilts will be appreciated. Thank you.

    To give the t-shirt some stability... I would use Pellon 911FF Fusible Featherweight, which is used for t-shirt quilts.

    Now for the backing, I'm assuming you could just use some regular cotton material and some batting to give it some warmth.
