Clients Feedback: 

“Here is a brilliant idea from Quick Stitch Quilting to keep and repurpose T-shirts and jumpers that have long passed their intended purpose. Turn those that have special memories and meaning that you can’t bring yourself to throw out, into a quilt, rather than them sitting in a dark and lonely corner of a rarely used cupboard. Mine are mixture of a small number of Finisher’s T-shirts from local and international marathons and other running events, and others that have significant personal meaning to me. It's high quality and beautifully made with attention to detail, including the stitching being a runner breasting the finish tape. It’s a brilliant idea that has been beautifully executed. Many thanks to Gail & Tamara from Quick Stitch Quilting for the brilliant idea in the first place, skill, artistic flair, and patience. I love this quilt. Thanks"
